As part of the boot process, the thin client runs; /usr/bin/ltspfsd -a At this point, it is listening on 0.0.0.0:9220. Anyone on the network or the server can then access this port via the thin client's native IP address. ?? -- LTSPFS security is broken https://bugs.launchpad.net/

Ok, I don't know "why" there is an error in the code, but here is an easy fix. In the .cgi file (/usr/lib/cgi-bin) find the "graph" routine. Insert a ");" before the two COMMENT: lines (and remove these lines). It seems that the script is using a feature of RDD (comments) that is either not there
