I don't use Xpra to know its intricacies, but the error message is giving you a hint. Some quick things to check for: Is there a listening port on the server box as you have specified? Is Xpra running on the server? Are you binding the correct address, or all addresses, e.g.: xpra start --bind-ssh=0.0.0.0:22222 --start=some_app Can the user running the Xpra server access the private key? You can set IdentityFile, or make sure the user can access ~/.ssh/. Is there a firewall blocking access? And finally, increase verbosity and then check what the logs reveal on both ends of the connection, other than the no response message you posted. HTH.
