Answer 1

We disabled FIPS on Linux to let the remote powershell through.

Your Linux machine isn't a Windows AD Domain member, so using Kerberos won't work. However, PowerShell 7 (which is what you're running on Linux) can use SSH instead -- IF you also have PowerShell 7 installed on the Windows machine (preferably Windows 10 or Server 2019).
