with the version of ltspfsd in lenny, you'll need to tweak
/opt/ltsp/i386/etc/udev/rules.d/*ltspfs*

remove ATTRS{removable}=="1", from the following line:

ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="block", ATTRS{removable}=="1", RUN+="ltspfs_entry add %k"

then all hard disk partitions should show up. note that anyone logged in
from your thin client will have full read-write access to the
partitions, so don't plug in a laptop with sensitive information or some
such.

live well,
