I would have really preferred to use something like LTSP but unfortunately it doesn't support fedora 17 (the client side stops at fedora 14, which is an unacceptable option for me).

The 32-bit version of F17 is unfortunately not acceptable for what I do (and use), so I can't change the ecosystem of my workstation. The only real solution for me is something that would allow me to connect my 32-bit zero client to my 64-bit OS, but I don't know if/how it's possible (perhaps some sort of a compatibility software or something).

I don't know about LTSP support on F17, most of the work on LTSP and Fedora/EL6 has been done by Warren Togami.
I think I might just try to install it on F17 or F18 and see if I can as least spot what has been broken. I've just been messing around with LTSP on EL6 since that seems to mostly be stable and working, and I don't have any pressing reason to be using F17 or 18. 

I'm curious what you need in Fedora 17 that isn't in EL6.
