As a one-off:
X :1 -broadcast
or
X :1 -query ltsp_server_address
depending on whether you want to broadcast to find the server or not.
Easiest way to set this as a permanent feature is (probably) to edit
/etc/inittab: you should have a line near the end that looks something
like
x:5:respawn:/etc/X11/prefdm -nodaemon
Change this to
x:5:respawn:/usr/X11R6/bin/X -broadcast
(or something similar).
HTH,
