Al,
I set up an environment similar to what you describe a few months ago
and remember (vaguely) messing with that, I seem to remember that you
can specify what settings get "pushed" to each client, I think I did it
by mac address (which is kind of a hassle if you have a lot of thin
clients) but it may be a place to start. I have the ltsp docs saved so
let me look through them...
