lts.conf settings being ignored

[Alkis Georgopoulos]

Those results are not valid, you probably made a lot of copy/paste 
errors again:

It's impossible to have only comments in lts.conf (#SOUND=True, 
#SCREEN_02=shell)
AND to get results from `getltscfg -a` on the client, i.e. 
(#SCREEN_01="shell"), because getltscfg ignores comments,
AND for the results to be comments (#SCREEN_01), because getltscfg never 
outputs comments,
AND to get SCREEN_01 on the client while the server defines SCREEN_02,
AND have the same md5sum on those files...

Don't use /opt/ltsp/i386/etc/lts.conf, if you have to use that then it 
means there's something wrong with your DHCP/TFTP  setup.
In your case, this isn't the issue; the file arrives at the client 
correctly and possibly (based on the feedback you gave so far) with the 
correct md5sum.

Try the IRC channel again...
