Windchill 11.0 M020/30, Windows Server 2012 NTLMv2 issues

So I've been racking my brain since march, and literally no valuable help from PTC on this issue, but I need some input from the community at this point.  We've had a case open with PTC for 68 days and still no fix...

Environment:

Windows Server 2012R2

Windchill 11.0 M020 (also tried with M030) OOTB

-Apache 2.4 (bundled version)

Server (& AD Domain Controller) has policies that require contact to AD/DC to be NTLMv2 only.

Certificates are properly imported into Keystore & to the TRCA on the machine

Followed CS62326.

This configuration works perfectly with our production environment Windows Server 2008R2 / WC 10.2 M030 / Apache 2.2.

I am racking my brain here....

Any of you using Server 2012R2 & WC 11.0 yet?
