[Samba] How to identify the operating system of a client?

My goal is to distinguish between Mac and Windows clients on a Samba
server in order to provide shares with vfs_fruit only to Mac clients.
So I assumed using the variable substitution %a which contains the
architecture of the remote machine would be the correct way forward.
But as it turns out, a Windows 10 client is reported as having the
architecture "OSX".
Short of agressively scanning a remote client with nmap, does anyone
have a suggestion on how to solve this problem?
Thanks!
