The "Kerberized SSHv1" that floated about some time back is really not
something that you want to use.  Besides being non-standard, there were
issues with it (I don't recall the details).  Also, it does not use the
GSS-API, so you'd need a Java implementation of raw Kerberos.  You could
probably use the underlying raw Kerberos V implementation in JGSS, but
you may have to hack on the [fortunately now open source] JDK.

I urge you to upgrade to SSHv2.
