What do you mean by "linux scheduler"?  A linux central manager?  I 
wouldn't expect any special difficulties getting a windows schedd to 
talk to a linux collector + negotiator.  You need to make sure the 
schedd is in the ALLOW_DAEMON list (which defaults to the ALLOW_WRITE list).

"never" is not a valid authentication method.  You probably mean this:

SEC_DEFAULT_AUTHENTICATION = NEVER

But instead of NEVER, you may just want OPTIONAL.  That means, "don't 
bother authenticating unless the peer wants to".
