I wana use this server as a pass through proxy. Is this somehow possible?

This appears to be caused by attempting to access the node SMB server using an alternative port (ex. \\[server]:8445\). Windows tries to interpret this as a web URL and sends an HTTP request to the server. The value "79" is the ASCII letter "O", part of the "OPTIONS" component of the HTTP header. Windows will only make outbound SMB connections on the standard port (445). This could potentialy be worked around by using port translation on a firewall etc.

as @kkronyak correctly pointed out, Windows SMB clients only support the standard SMB port 445.

closing issue.
