The gss API auth is used for Windows integration authentication. With gss API auth, two domain joined windows can authencate without password or key files. It's convenient and safe.

It's passed with gss_auth=True and gss_kex=True. Other arguments for advanced security settings.

Please see paramiko document below for added arguments.

@mwilliamson, please let me know any question. And it would be great, if you can make a release after it's merged. Thank you in advance.

gss auth can be setup with Windows OpenSSH easily. So the SSH supports domain integrated authentication. It doesn't need key or password.
