Following these debug messages, we see that the name of the server on
which the server is installed changes fromNULL to "".

In an attempt to revive this thread (since it broke printing for me too), it appears that if a NULL pointer is passed to:

RtlCreateUnicodeStringFromAsciiz(&pNameW,pName);

then it returns an empty string in pNameW.buffer, rather than NULL.

Since these conversion functions are apparently APIs in Win2000 and later, which I don't have, hopefully someone could add test cases to dlls/ntdll/test/rtlstr.c to test what that function should return when passed a null pointer?
