Thanks for finding this, I've added it to the destructor.

This has only impact on the make_session_info_krb5()
and register_initial_vuid() code, so I guess there's no impact at all.
Do you see any impact?

register_existing_vuid() calls set_current_user_info(), which calls
sub_set_smb_name(), so I think the smb1 session setup is consistent now.

For the kerberos case (above) we call register_existing_vuid() and
reload_services(sconn, conn_snum_used, true); again.

I'm about to also add this to the smb2_sesssetup.c code...
(The patch is in autobuild)

Maybe, but could we copy the auth_ntlmssp.c chunk to auth_generic
as a first step?

Currently review and testing:-)
