Only on a linux box.
In my mind, NTLM being a Microsoft protocol, the chance of it working
on a linux box was small.

That is what I observed. When the tomcat on my linux was configured
with the SPNEGO valve, at first my browser was talking NTLM
(apparently, you can see that when the first reponse to the negotiate
challenge begins with NTRLM...), and I got an error in tomcat log
saying can't validate client ticket.

Once i declared the box in the active directory dns, my browser
stopped using NTLM for Kerberos and everything works as expected.

It should be apparent I'm really not an expert on that, so all that is
just some guesses. I'm still studying all that.
