Would you like to make the virtual server your ltsp-server? Well, actually that doesn't really matter, because you don't have any workload on the ltsp-server except during booting. The machines the thinclients can log in via ldm may be different. In our system the ltsp-server is a virtual system for which a seperate IP was specified. So there is no real difference. But we used XEN. If you want to seperate your services a virtual machine is of course a good idea.
