I did get xpra installed. Thanks for the link on how.

I still hesitate to create a ticket for a simple configuration problem.  Would 
the irc be a better place for this kind of assistance?

I think this is the page that should say something about winswitch and xpra 
not being bundled anymore.  
https://winswitch.org/downloads/

It seams that I am having an authentication issue.  It seams the log is gone 
now, and yes I remember seeing something about them being deleted when the 
session is shutdown but don't remember the exact work around for it.  Anyway 
the "mac laptop user" is not on the debian server.  Somehow I got that fixed on 
the debian laptop but the dialog boxes are different and I can't identify 
where to actually change that setting in winswitch on the mac.

Thanks again.
