You may need to set GSSAPIStrictAcceptorCheck=no in sshd_config, which I 
believe is only available with the GSSAPI Key Exchange patch for OpenSSH 
4.4p1 or higher.

Then, as you already mentioned, make sure the host principals for both 
fixed.example.com and float.example.com are in /etc/krb5.keytab.
