Hi all,

There's a new version of OpenSSH that'll be coming to us sometime
soonish, but there have been a bunch of changes that mean that the
GSSAPI *key exchange* patch will need a bit of rework. So I'm looking
for a volunteer who is using it on SmartOS to help with testing.

Note that this is not at all the same thing as GSSAPI *authentication*.
You can spot if you're using the KEX method easily by SSH'ing to a box
that isn't in your known_hosts. If you have a krb5 ticket and it
automatically kicks in and you don't have to say you trust the host's
key, then you're using this functionality. If you still have to say
whether you trust the host's key (the yes/no prompt), but you're
automatically logged in, that's just the regular GSS authentication
method, not key exchange.

So if you're using it, please let me know! Thanks
