I've created a fresh installation of Cygwin, and see the exact same error: $ ssh -v XXXhostXXX OpenSSH_6.2p2, OpenSSL 1.0.1e 11 Feb 2013 [snip] debug1: Authentications that can continue: publickey,gssapi-with-mic,password debug1: Next authentication method: gssapi-with-mic debug1: Miscellaneous failure (see text) unknown mech-code 2529639054 for mech 1 3 6 1 4 1 311 2 2 10 debug1: Delegating credentials debug1: Delegating credentials debug1: Authentication succeeded (gssapi-with-mic).
