Ah! Well that won't work. When a client attempts to join a
domain, it expects the trust account to have a known value
(the client's netbios name append with a '$' character).
Once it successfully joins the domain, it will change this
password.
Therefore, you will need to use a different netbios name
on either Linux or NT and add both names (computers) to
the PDC.
Cheers,
