[Bug 1020113] [NEW] ltsp: screen session "ssh" not working in precise

[Rüdiger Kupper]

Public bug reported:

We have "SCREEN_02=ssh" in our lts.conf. It used to work properly, but
since update to precise, it fails.

What happens:
- Press ALT+F2
- promt "Username:" is shown on top of the screen
- enter user name, press ENTER
- a message on ssh usage is shown on the screen, indicating that ssh was called with wrong parameters
- after a few seconds, screen is cleared and reads "Username:" again


What should happen:
- Press ALT+F2
- prompt "Username:" is shown on top of the screen
- enter user name, press ENTER
- script prompts password
- script starts ssh session to LTSP server

Note: The usage message seems to indicate that the environment variable
"SERVER" is not known to the ssh screen script. Is this variable known
when the ssh script ist called?
