I can make the connection using the remmina remote desktop client.
However, once the connection is made, the client prompts me for a
password.  That should not be necessary if I have a public key that
matches.

ssh public key authentication works fine.

This may be an xrdp issue.

My settings are protocol:rdp, security:negotiate, protocol: remote
desktop protocol, ssh server : same server at port 22, identity file: I
select an identity file and it reverts to id_rsa.  If I use id_rsa, then
I cannot login at all.

I also tried public key (automatic) and that fails.

I then tried protocol:ssh.  I set the identity file to the correct
private key and save it.  The configuration reverts to id_rsa.  If I set
the identity file to the correct private key, then it works.

I cannot use a password on the server by administrative policy.

The next challenge is to tunnel X windows.
