Package: ltsp-server
Version: 5.1.10-2
Severity: minor
LTSP's lts.conf LDM_DIRECTX option appears to work as expected,
(bypasses ssh for post-login X11 network traffic)
but isn't listed in /usr/share/doc/ltsp-server/lts-parameters.txt.gz
Alternatively it might be argued the LDM_DIRECTX mode is horribly insecure
and shouldn't be provided!

thanks for the bug report.
this was fixed in an upload to experimental a while ago, and is fixed in
the current version in unstable (5.1.62-1). sorry we didn't have it
documented with the packages in lenny.

yes, some people proposed calling is LDM_INSECURE when the feature was
introduced. :)
the need for better performance with lower end thin clients and servers is
important to the LTSP project, despite the tradeoff in security, and at least
is secure by default.
live well,
