Wrong ticket error is misleading

[muhgatus]

Assume that you have 2 kerberos realms in place without a cross realm trust. You have a ticket for Realm A but you connect to a host located in Realm B.

This error occoures:

No handlers could be found for logger "paramiko.transport"
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./sshClient", line 22, in <module>
    gss_kex=True,
  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/paramiko-1.12.1-py2.6.egg/paramiko/client.py", line 371, in connect
    look_for_keys, gss_auth, gss_kex, gss_deleg_creds, gss_host)
  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/paramiko-1.12.1-py2.6.egg/paramiko/client.py", line 590, in _auth
    raise saved_exception
TypeError: decode() takes no keyword arguments

There should be a better Exception for this :)

If you have the correct ticket in your cred cache it works, so there is no general fault, but a misleading Exception is raised.

Can you provide me more specific information about this exception such as the full traceback from the logfile?
Thanks.
