To disable GSS API, first open/etc/ssh/sshd_config in your favorite editor

vi /etc/ssh/sshd_config

Then find the line that says GSSAPIAuthentication yes and change it to GSSAPIAuthentication no

sed -i 's/GSSAPIAuthentication yes/GSSAPIAuthentication no/g' etc/ssh/sshd_config

and save the file. Finally, restart the sshd service.

service sshd restart
