Not sure if it's a bug, but NTLM authentication has just started to fail connecting to SharePoint running IIS, after it's been working for years. The URL is accessible using IE or Mozilla using the same login credentials. I've worked with our SharePoint team, and they are telling me that they have not changed any configurations on their side. I'm guessing that maybe Microsoft has recently updated/changed their proprietary protocol. Here's some debug info:
