Re: GSSAPI authentication only works for first session
Does this happen for second parallel connection only or even for second consecutive? I assume that restarting WinSCP helps, right?

GSSAPI authentication only works for first session
When performing GSSAPI/Kerberos authentication only the first session will connect without asking for a password. Subsequent sessions open to the same server will ask for a password.
To reproduce:
1) Connect to an SFTP server using GSSAPI authentication (it should not ask for your password).
2) Open a new session to the same server (ensure GSSAPI authentication is enabled). It will ask you for your password.
With "debug 2" logging enabled the (relevant) error in the second session is thus:
