Yes... both are possible options. Unfortunately I don't control the DNS
and I'm told the DNS is "correct". I'm trying to convince those that
control the DNS something needs to change, but that's really just a
work-around. It's not addressing my real question...
I'm trying to understand WHY this doesn't work given the current
situation, ie, 2 hostnames and 1 IP address.
If it works from an OS X client, why doesn't it work from a linux client?

The same "key"? Not sure what you mean. They are completely separate
host principals but they are in the same keytab. This is how I've done it
for a true multi-homed host (ie separate IP addresses) and it works fine.
