We used to not send the WorkstationName during NTLMSSP until recent patch from Shyam: commit 49bd49f983b5026e4557d31c5d737d9657c4113e Author: Shyam Prasad N <sprasad@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri Nov 5 19:03:57 2021 +0000 cifs: send workstation name during ntlmssp session setup During the ntlmssp session setup (authenticate phases) send the client workstation info. This can make debugging easier on servers.

Steve, Shyam, let me know if it does make sense to you and then I can work on a patch to fix it properly.
