You know what you're saying. Great! That was the answer. THANKS.

Is it a security risk?

I uncommented this options in /etc/ssh/sshd_config:
# GSSAPI options
GSSAPIAuthentication no
GSSAPICleanupCredentials yes

(what I don't understand: I read that every option in config which is
commented points to the default. Now I just uncommenting it, not
changing the value, does the trick. weird... For the archive...)
