On a windows computer joined to a domain, it should not be required to provide a password for SSPI when the logged in as the desired user.
On the test box, I can successfully authenticate when providing a password, but when the password is omitted, the following error is produced:
> mongo hostname -authenticationMechanism=GSSAPI -authenticationDatabase=$external -username user@DOMAIN.COM
MongoDB shell version: 2.5.4-pre-
connecting to: hostname/test
