const {ntlmParse} = require('ntlm-parser');
const object = ntlmParse(base64);
console.log('object: ', object);
object: {
messageType: 'NEGOTIATE_MESSAGE (type 1)',
flags: 'NEGOTIATE_UNICODE NEGOTIATE_OEM REQUEST_TARGET NEGOTIATE_NTLM NEGOTIATE_ALWAYS_SIGN NEGOTIATE_EXTENDED_SESSIONSECURITY NEGOTIATE_VERSION NEGOTIATE_128 NEGOTIATE_56',

const object = ntlmParse(base64);
console.log('object: ', object);
