My ltspworkstations aren't working yet this time around, but with Sarge,
you couldn't log in until you had added the workstation as a machine.
You would do that in lwat and /etc/dhcp.conf.

The problems are:
1-I would like to know samething more about the groups but the
documentation is not yet ready
http://wiki.skolelinux.no/DebianEdu/Documentation/Etch/GettingStarted

2-I tried to add my machine with LWAT but it doesn't add it (like I
reported in the previus mail) and gives the error:

Warning:ldap_add)([function.ldap]: Add: Strong(er) authentication
required in /usr/share/lwat/web/admin.php on line 378
No matching objects

I haven't reported it like a bug because I'm not sure of doing the
right thing...but it seems to be.

3-I edited the dhc.conf like wrote in the wiki
http://wiki.debian.org/DebianEdu/HowTo/LtspDisklessWorkstation?highlight=%28DebianEdu%2FHowTo%2F%29#head-26f12e766954393f43559e19868f5b947e50e185
Without it, the diskless w.s. was not even able to boot. Now is
working fine till kdm.

You mean ldm, or do you get kdm? In that case, if this is a 3.0 server, there is something else that is wrong...

Now, for be able to login, do I need samething more on the dhcp.conf?
In ather words I don't know/understund what mean "to add the
workstation as a machine".

Thnskyou for the asnwers.

If you just want to test, and you are not afraid someone might do something they shouldn't on your network, you can edit /etc/exports on your main server to allow anyone to mount the homedirs via nfs.

Edit /etc/exports like you edited /etc/dhcp3/dhcpd.conf

Comment out the following line with a # like this:
# /skole/tjener/home0 @ltsp-server-hosts(rw,async,no_subtree_check) @workstation-hosts(rw,async,no_subtree_check) @server-osts(rw,async,no_subtree_check)

Then add this line
/skole/tjener/home0 *(rw,async,no_subtree_check)

Save, and then restart nfs:
/etc/init.d/nfs-kernel-server restart
/etc/init.d/nfs-common restart

Now you don't have to add your client with lwat.

Try to log in on your client.
