Great.  What is the kvno if the client does not provide one in that
structure, when it initially calls CreateTrustedDomainEx?  (I think it
is -1)

For a trusted domain (objectClass trustedDomain), the Kerberos key
version number is stored in the trusted domain object (TDO), embedded in
the trustAuthIncoming and trustAuthOutgoing attributes.
