I don't really have time for another round of extended OpenSSH
debugging but I can at least give you success criteria for what you
should expect when you have succeeded: * For protocol version 1, two
implementations both with Kerberos support can authenticate without a
password. IN some cases you will be able to forward tickets.
* With ssh version 2, using sxw's patches, you can authenticate using
GSSAPI key exchange and forward your tickets without a password.
You will not need to maintain an ssh known_hosts file; you should
not be asked about adding the host to this file when you first
connect.
* If you use a client that does not understand Kerberos, the server
should optionally accept a Kerberos password, authenticating it
through PAM or native Kerberos password support and getting you a
ticket.
These three environments work completely differently and should be
debugged separately.
