I guess it was just my bumbling or maybe because I got hold of an
older version of Xming... but once I went thru the Donation procedure
and got a uid and passwd for the server with the most recent verions,
and paid more attention to configuring the launcher.... also noticed I
could start the remote emacs right from xming launcher.

That way it worked first try.

Thanks for all the help.
