Bug Description

If Ubuntu 8.04.1 is installed from the alternate CD as an LTSP Server, along with Edubuntu, when any user uses user-switching on the server itself (either through the Gnome Applet or by clicking the "Door/Exit" Icon and selecting to Switch User), the second user that logs in receives an error message that port 5800 is already in use.

Is this still a problem? I thought that this was maybe fixed in the last release or two. I think this would also be better classified as a LTSP bug.
