No, not in GOsa. But as LTSP is configurable to a very high degree, the
following might work.
(1) Add a local user 'guest' (w/o password) in the LTSP client chroot.
ltsp-chroot useradd -m -d /home/guest guest
ltsp-chroot usermod -p '' guest
ltsp-chroot usermod -U guest
(2) Use the stock display manager (default is kdm) instead of LDM.
In /opt/ltsp/i386/etc/lts.conf (under [default] or for
special workstations using [ws-mac-address]) you have to set:
DEFAULT_DISPLAY_MANAGER=/usr/bin/kdm
(3) Use KDM auto login for the local user.
In /opt/ltsp/i386/etc/kde4/kdm/kdmrc set:
AutoLoginEnable=true
AutoLoginUser=guest
Everything specific for user 'guest' will exist only temporarily in RAM
(on each actually used diskless ws). After logging out nothing is saved,
nothing is left behind.
