It's clear to me that the howto, while useful, is not sufficiently clear or
correct.  I've redrafted it.  Could people please have a look and see what
they think?  If people think it's wrong, bad or worse we can always fix it
up or roll the changes back.

PS I left out the step of setting routes on the upstream router.  The whole
   point of using NAT is that this is not needed.  The upstream router sees
   the ltsp server's address, so routing is not an issue.  This is simpler,
   as we can direct people how to NAT, whereas every router is different.
