Okay so How can I test to see if I am capable of logging into the domain
using my Kerb V principle?

I've already added these entries.

My Kerb V realm name is indeed different from my domain name. So I am
well aware of which is which when referenced.
I am only seeing tickets from my AD domain realm. I am not seeing any
tickets seemingly issued by my Kerb V realm. Do I need to configure the
client machines on the domain to be aware of the Kerb5 trusted realm?
Are they aware of it through SRV records? Or is NTLM auth to the AD
domain supposed to automagically grab tickets from my trusted kerb5
realm? When I log into NTLM I am not seeing any queries in krb5kdc.log =(.
Am I missing some added step in providing cross realm authentication
that's not mentition in the interoperability guide?

This particular document is no longer of any use to me as I have
followed every instruction in it and accomplished everything it is
capable of guiding me torwards. I am furthering this question to the
list because upon completion of mapping names to the kerb 5 principals
the instructions cut off. I do not know how i am supposed to expect
NTLM auth to the domain to work with the trusted realm, or how to verify
that it is working. Worse still if it is not working, I have no idea
what common trouble areas might be.
Any information in regards to this would be very very helpful to a great
many people I am sure.
Thank you for your response Douglas. It was of course as always very
enlightening.
