    - How ipconfig search for network card information?? Hi, We have written a miniport driver for NIC that installed properly and registers with NDIS (version 5.0)successfully.But card information does not come up when we do ipconfig. Another thing is that we dont get any call for SetInformation by NDIS, but other calls like QueryInformation, MPISR, HandleInterrupt are comiing regularly.Can anybody have any idea what is wrong with miniport driver or how ipconfig asks for card information. Any help would be highly appericiated. Thanks, Rahul Jain Tag: how to bring Standard Layout tab Tag: 90206

    - MI5 Persecution: why the security services? -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= -= why the security services? -= -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= You may ask, why do I think the "they" referred to are the security services? Is there any evidence that there is a single source, as opposed to a loosely based "whispering campaign" amongst many people? Even if there is a single source, is there any evidence that "they" are professional "buggers" as opposed to amateurs, or perhaps people working for a privately funded organization? a) As to the question of a single source versus something more fragmented; it is quite obvious that there is a single source from the way the campaign has been carried out. Since things have been repeated verbatim which were said in my home, there must be one group which does the watching and listening. Since on several occasions (mainly during travel) people have been planted in close proximity and rehearsed in what they were to say, it follows that someone must have done the planning for that, and again a single source is indicated. b) So why couldn't it be amateurs? Why couldn't it be a private organisation, for example a private detective agency paid to manage the campaign and undertake the technical aspects? Some detective agencies are unscrupulous as has been proved on the occasions in the past when they've been exposed or caught; they too can have access to the bugging technology deployed; and there are reported cases of MI5 paying private eyes to do their dirty work (against peace campaigners and similar enemies of the state) on the understanding that if they were caught then they could deny all knowledge. Why couldn't that be the case? The main factor pointing to direct security service involvement (as opposed to amateurs or MI5 proxies) is the breadth of their access to the media in particular, and the fact that the television companies are so involved in the campaign. The BBC would not directly invade someone's home themselves, since it would not be within their remit to allocate personnel or financial resources to do so. An organisation of their stature would not take part in a campaign set up by private sources. The only people they would take material from would be the security services, presumably on the assumption that if the cat ever flew out of the bag yowling it would be MI5 who would take the consequences. State sponsorship for these acts of psychological terrorism is also indicated by duration; support for over six years for a team of three or four people would be beyond the means and will of most private sources. The viciousness of the slanders and personal denigration also points to MI5; they traditionally "protect" the British state from politicians of the wrong hue by character assassination, and in this case are using their tried and tested methods to murder with words an enemy they have invented for themselves. And there are precedents. Diana and Hewitt were alleged to have been filmed "at it" by an Army intelligence team which had operated in Northern Ireland, these allegations were made by someone called Jones who had been on the team. His statements were denied by the defence establishment who tried to character-assassinate by describing him as the "Jones twins". Funny how if you tell the truth, then you must be ill, isn't it? Thought only communists behaved like that? Hewitt later said that he'd been spoken to by someone in the army who revealed the existence of videotapes of him and Diana, and that the tapes would be published if any attempt was made by them to resume their association. 539 -- Posted via a free Usenet account from http://www.teranews.com Tag: how to bring Standard Layout tab Tag: 90170

    - MI5 Persecution: abuse in set-up situations and in public -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=--=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -= abuse in set-up situations and in public -= -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=--=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Strangers in the street have recognized me on sight many times, and shown awareness of the current thread of abuse. To give you one example, in 1992 I was seriously ill, and a manager at work somewhat humorously said that "it wasn't fair" that people were bullying me. A few days later, I attended for the first time a clinic in London as an outpatient, and on my way out was accosted by someone who asked if "they had paid my fare", with emphasis on the word "fare". He repeated the word several times in this different context; that they should have paid my "fare", each time emphasizing the word. For two and a half years from the time their harassment started until November 1992 I refused to see a psychiatrist, because I reasoned that I was not ill of my own action or fault, but through the stress caused by harassment, and that a lessening of the illness would have to be consequent to a removal of its immediate cause, in other words a cessation of harassment. I also reasoned that since they were taunting me with jokes about mental illness, if I were to seek treatment then the abusers would think that they had "won" and been proved "right". Remember, the constant theme of any persecution is, "we must destroy you because you're X", whether X is a racial or other attribute. In this case the X was "we persecute you because you have brain disease". The similarity of this logic to Nazi attitudes to the mentally ill is striking. The same manager who'd said "it wasn't fair" asked me in winter 1992 why I didn't seek help from a psychiatrist; was it, he asked, because "they would think they had won" if I sought treatment? That was something I'd never said at work... again, taken separately it proves nothing, but many such things over a period of months proves conclusively that people in the company knew what was going on, and in quite a lot of detail. Usually harassment in public lacks the level of finesse of "paying your fare". Most people's imagination does not go beyond moronic parroting of the current term of denigration. That is not surprising given the average level of the abusers; if they do not have the intelligence to distinguish wrong from right then neither will they have the capacity for anything other than mindless repetition of a monosyllabic term calculated to fit into their minds. The first incidents of verbal assault in public were in again in the summer of 1990, although they increased in frequency and venom with time. In July 1990 the first public incident occurred on a tube train on the Northern line. Two men and their girlfriends recognised me; the women sprang to my defence, saying "He looks perfectly normal, he doesn't look ill". Their boyfriends of course knew better, and followed the party line; one of them made reference to an "operation", apparently to work at the tube station but implicitly to a visit that I had made to hospital a couple of weeks previously. In August 1990 going home from college, soon after getting on a tube train at Gloucester Road I was followed by a group of four youths, who started a chant of abuse. That they were targeting me was confirmed by other people in the carriage, one of whom asked the other "who are they going on at, is it the bloke who just got on?" to which the second replied "yes, I think so". I was tempted to reply, but as in every other instance the abusers are enabled in their cowardice by physically outnumbering the abused; any confrontation would result in my being beaten up, followed by a complaint to the police that "he attacked us", and of course he's ill, so he must have been imagining that we were getting at him. Shitty, aren't they? But the shittiness of the four youths on the tube train is as nothing compared to the episode on the National Express coach to Dover in the summer of 1992. While going on holiday to the Continent I was verbally set upon by a couple travelling sitting a few rows behind. The boy did the talking, his female companion contributing only a continuous empty giggling noise. He spoke loudly to ensure other people on the coach heard, always about "they" and "this bloke" but never naming either the abusers or the person he was talking about. He said "they" had "found somebody from his school, and he was always really stressed at school". They must have dug deep to find enemies there; perhaps someone who dropped out of school, someone who didn't do too well later, who was jealous and keen to get their own back? The boy also said "he was in a bed and breakfast for only one night and they got him". By a not unexpected coincidence I had been in a B&B in Oxford a week previously, which had been booked from work; other things lead me to the conclusion that the company's offices were bugged for most of the 2 1/2 years that I was there, so "they" would have known a room in the B&B had been booked. (But I'll bet "they" didn't tell the company's managers their offices were bugged, did they?). After a few minutes of this I went back to where they were sitting and asked where they were travelling. The boy named a village in France, and the girl's giggling suddenly ceased; presumably it permeated to her brain cell what the purpose of the boy's abuse was. This and other set-up situations are obviously calculated to provoke a direct confrontation which would bring in the police, with the abusers claiming that they were the ones attacked. Again in 1992, outside the house where I was living in Oxford I was physically attacked by someone - not punched, just grabbed by the coat, with some verbals thrown in for good measure. That was something the people at work shouldn't have known about... but soon after a couple of people were talking right in front of me about, "I heard he was attacked". The UK police have a responsibility for preventing assault occurring, but they do not seem to take any interest in meeting that responsibility. I suppose their attitude is that harassment does not come within their remit unless it involves physical assault, and they will only become involved once that happens. That is of course quite the wrong attitude for them to take, but as I now understand, the police investigate only the crime they wish to investigate; if they do not take your complaints seriously then there is nothing you can do to make them take action. 539 -- Posted via a free Usenet account from http://www.teranews.com Tag: how to bring Standard Layout tab Tag: 90165

    - Vista Driver query I had developed a static driver for Windows XP which will get loaded during OS boot up. This driver does not require any physical hardware and it gets loaded due to manual registry entries created under HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\Root. Now in Windows Vista it doesnâ??t allow me to create registry entry manually under the enum \Root key due to rights restriction. Finally I was able to create registry entry thru a kernel code. After system reboot I can see device enumeration I provide the path to my static driver it loads the driver but in the final screen it says â??Installation of the device forbidden by System policy â??. Is there any way to make driver load during boot time without even a device in Vista?? Kindly help me out in this. Tag: how to bring Standard Layout tab Tag: 90160

    - NDIS6 NBL indication Hi I am writing an NDIS6 miniport driver and I have a question: I indicate NBL to NDIS using NdisMIndicateReceiveNetBufferLists. Those NBL are allocated using NdisAllocateNetBufferAndNetBufferList (i.e. each NBL is paired with a single NB). Each NB has a single MDL (which I allocated seperately using NdisAllocateMdl). When Ndis return the NBL to me (in MiniportReturnNetBufferLists) I notice that the NB containes now more than a single MDL (the original MDL is chained to another MDL). 1. Is that Normal ? i.e. can Ndis and above protocols can add MDLs to the NB after I indicate an NBL? 2. Should I release the new MDLs (which I did not allocated)? 3. Is it possible that Ndis will remove my original MDLs from the NB? In that case I guess that Ndis is also responsible for freeing it right?

    - IRP_MN_QUERY_DEVICE_RELATIONS concurrency Is it possible to receive another IRP_MN_QUERY_DEVICE_RELATIONS for BusRelations while handling a different IRP_MN_QUERY_DEVICE_RELATIONS for BusRelations? (say on Windows 2000) I assumed not because I found no documentation for it. I have seen that white paper on IRP concurrency, but it failed to mention this one. I see "context of a system thread" mentioned in the DDK docs, which makes me think that might be the same system thread that sends IRP_MN_START_DEVICE, IRP_MN_STOP_DEVICE, and IRP_MN_REMOVE_DEVICE. Maybe I should just send every PnP IRP through my own worker thread, then I won't have to think about whether the OS serializes this PnP IRP or that one and why it does some and not others. I can't imagine PnP IRPs happen that often, so I can't imagine it'd be any sort of a performance bottleneck. Tag: how to bring Standard Layout tab Tag: 90063

    - Mutual exclusion at passive level What's the standard way to call routines that are documented to require passive level inside code that needs to be mutually exclusive with some other code? A spin lock is out because it raises to DPC level, and I suppose dispatcher and fast mutexes are out because they raise to APC level. This APC level thing is what bugs me. It's sort of like passive level (preemptive) but sort of not, so maybe it's safe to call passive level code and maybe it's not. So, does this leave that trick with fast mutexes of combining KeEnterCriticalRegion and ExAcquireFastMutexUnsafe, or should I use a worker thread? (which seems kind of cumbersome) I wrote a bunch of code that very carefully holds a lock for as short as possible, grabs some information, does choice parts of its operations outside, then finally grabs the lock to store the result, but when I look at it I see it could be so much simpler if there was a safe way to make the whole large set of operations mutually exclusive.

    - __except_handler3 instead __except_handler4 Hello, I'm using the Windows Server 2003 SP1 DDK to build my drivers and I want to build also my MFC applications in the same build process (as I did it till now with the Windows 2000 DDK). The DDK has a compiler version 13.x. For the new MFC8 projects from VS2005 I need a compiler version 14.x from VS2005. I called vcvarsall.bat from VS2005 in my DDK environment, so I have the new compiler to build the MFC8 projects. After some changes for MFC_INCLUDES, MFC_INC_PATH, MFC_LIB_PATH my MFC8 compiles fine with DDK build. But I can no longer link my drivers, because __except_handler4 and __local_unwind4 are unresolved externals. cl.exe 13.x generates code with __except_handler3, which I can link with wdm.lib. cl.exe 14.x generates code with __except_handler4, which I can not link with wdm.lib. The MFC procject is linked with msvcrtd.lib, whichs contains __except_handler3 and __except_handler4. I have looked in the c2.dll of the cl 14.x. There I have found __except_handler4 and also __except_handler3. So I think, there must be a way to generate older exception handling with the new compiler. Who does know a compiler switch to generate older exception handling (__except_handler3) with the compiler cl 14.x from VS2005? Thanks, Volker Tag: how to bring Standard Layout tab Tag: 90032

For example, in DrvText Out, it will just call EngTextOut and return its value. Now the new problem is: 1. If the mirror driver's width/height/bitcount are different from primary driver's, it will still got black image. -- jarvisbao ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Posted via http://www.codecomments.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Tag: how to bring Standard Layout tab Tag: 90013

    - NDIS 5.0 in Vista ? Hi Experts: I have a question on NDIS version usable under Windows Vista: We have been using an NDIS miniport driver writing using NDIS 5.0. Will this work under Windows Vista? If not, what should I do to make it work in Vista with minimum change? For example, should I port the driver code to NDIS 5.1 (which is supported by Vista as I read from the web)? If I port the code to NDIS 6.0, will the driver still work under older Windows platforms like Windows 2000 and XP? Thanks for your advises ! Polaris Tag: how to bring Standard Layout tab Tag: 90007

    - OID_GEN_SUPPORTED_GUID Query Failure I am querying a NDIS miniport driver for OID_GEN_SUPPORTED_GUID and it returns status 0xC00000BB (STATUS_NOT_SUPPORTED). The driver supports this OID. I see that the query function is not being called in my NDIS driver. Is there any reason why this OID could be blocked/not passed on to the NDIS miniport driver by any other IM/protocol driver? I tried quering using RawEther and WinPCAP with the same result. Thanks, ..Ram Tag: how to bring Standard Layout tab Tag: 90006

    - iostream Hi, I'm using the winddk (6000) to not only develop a WDF driver, but also a console app that tests out my driver (using IOCTLs). When I include <iostream> in the console app, the ddk compiler can't find it. I did find it in c:\winddk\6000\inc\api\crt\stl70.

    - DIFx 2.1: Vista 64-bit signed driver install problem (CM_PROB_DRIVER_FAILED_LOAD) Hi! Windows Vista 64-bit build 6000: I´ve got a signed 64-bit driver package for a PCI device. A pure .inf installation works without any problems. The device will be installed properly. But the device installation fails using DIFx 2.1 on a clean system (device has not been installed before). I´ve created a MSI installer using the DIFxAPP 2.1 merge module. The MSI installation log file reports no DIFx error message but the setupapi.dev.log file reports: !!! dvi: Device not started: Device has problem: 0x27: CM_PROB_DRIVER_FAILED_LOAD. And Vista prompts with a "Program Compatibility Assistant - Windows requires a digitally signed driver" dialog. The MSI installation works only if the device has been installed through a pure .inf installation before at least. Looks like that the .cat file will not be copied into the CatRoot directory?!? I will check that out. And I will try the same scenario using DPInst.exe instead of the MSI installer, but I assume that will produce the same problem. Maybe I am doing something wrong. I hope that anyone of the DIFx team can help. Thanks! -Nick Tag: how to bring Standard Layout tab Tag: 89972

    - NDIS6 - state machine and USB questions Hi everyone, 1. I am writing an NDIS6 virtual miniport driver and I am confused by the miniport and NDIS behaviour when I am disabling the device (through device manager). What happens is that Ndis calls MiniportPause, than it calls MiniportRestart and after that it calls MiniportPause again and finally it calls MiniportHalt. This confuses me since from what I understood from the state machine documented at WDK the sequence should be: a call to MiniportPause followed by a call to MiniportHalt - no call to MiniportRestart in the middle Is the sequence I see in my miniport indicates a problem on it or is it the normal sequence when disabling a device? 2. In the future I would like to turn the mninipot into NDIS + KMDF driver using USB. I would like to use the ContiniousReader mechanism. In NdisEdge sample it is written shortly about how to convert the sample to a USB but it is very general. So I looked at the WDK and at the osrusbfx2 sample and I saw that when using it on a KMDF driver one should do some actions on the following KMDF callbacks: EvtDeviceD0Entry (MiniportRestart ?) EvtDeviceD0Exit (MiniportPause ?) EvtDevicePrepareHardware (MiniportInitializeEx ?) EvtDeviceReleaseHardware (MiniportHaltEx ?) Writing an NDIS+KMDF miniport I don't have these callbacks what are the NDIS callbacks that complies to the these KMDF callbacks (I wrote my assumptions in parenthesis) ?

    - [AVStream]: Device is not connected Hi all, I can use GraphEdit to build a graph for my video capture driver filter - an AVStream minidriver. And VMR grants the connection between pins. But when I "Run" the graph, an error message appears: "Device is not connected. Return code: 0x8007048f". In fact, if the real device is connected, the filter will not be inserted into the graph. It's strange! Does anyone meet this problem before? Thanks for your help Tag: how to bring Standard Layout tab Tag: 89950

    - SetupDiRemoveDevice questions? Hi, I want to remove 10 SATA disk running in AHCI mode without rebooting. At the moment I eject each disk with SetupDiRemoveDevice one by one. It takes about 3 seconds for each disk, for 10 disk about 30 seconds. Everything is working fine. If I eject each disk in its own thread, all 10 disks still needs 30 seconds to eject. It seems its not possible to eject more than one disk simultaneously. Is there a solution to eject all the disk at the same time?

    - Can not map the video memory into mapped file in mirror driver I am writing a mirror driver to share the video memory with user-mode applications, here is my idea: 1. In DrvEnablePDEV, create a mapped file (such as c:\mirror.dat) for video memory by function EngMapFile, and store the mapped memory in the point pVideoMemory of PPDEV. The map will be unmapped and the file will be deleted in DrvDisablePDEV 2. In DrvEnableSurface, modify the surface with EngModifySurface. The source code for DrvEnableSurface looks like: HSURF DrvEnableSurface( DHPDEV dhpdev) { PPDEV ppdev; HSURF hsurf; SIZEL sizl; ULONG ulBitmapType; FLONG flHooks; ULONG mirrorsize; MIRRSURF *mirrsurf; DHSURF dhsurf; LONG lDelta=0; // Create engine bitmap around frame buffer. ppdev = (PPDEV) dhpdev; DISPDBG((0,"DISP DrvEnableSurface:(%d,%d,%d)\n",ppdev->cxScreen,ppdev->cyScreen,ppdev->ulBitCount)); ppdev->ptlOrg.x = 0; ppdev->ptlOrg.y = 0; sizl.cx = ppdev->cxScreen; sizl.cy = ppdev->cyScreen; if (ppdev->ulBitCount == 16) { ulBitmapType = BMF_16BPP; flHooks = HOOKS_BMF16BPP; lDelta = ALIGNEDWIDTH(2 * sizl.cx); } else if (ppdev->ulBitCount == 24) { ulBitmapType = BMF_24BPP; flHooks = HOOKS_BMF24BPP; lDelta = ALIGNEDWIDTH(3 * sizl.cx); } else if(ppdev->ulBitCount==32) { ulBitmapType = BMF_32BPP; flHooks = HOOKS_BMF32BPP; lDelta = ALIGNEDWIDTH(4 * sizl.cx); } else return FALSE; flHooks |= flGlobalHooks; mirrorsize = (ULONG)(sizeof(MIRRSURF) + lDelta * sizl.cy); DISPDBG((0,"DISP DrvEnableSurface: MirrorSize:%d,lDelta:%d,pVideoMemory:%lx",mirrorsize,lDelta, ppdev->pVideoMemory)); mirrsurf = (MIRRSURF *) EngAllocMem(FL_ZERO_MEMORY, mirrorsize, 0x4D495252); if (!mirrsurf) { RIP("DISP DrvEnableSurface failed EngAllocMem\n"); return(FALSE); } dhsurf = (DHSURF) mirrsurf; hsurf = EngCreateDeviceSurface(dhsurf, sizl, ulBitmapType); if (hsurf == (HSURF) 0) { DISPDBG((0,"DISP DrvEnableSurface failed EngCreateDeviceSurface\n")); return(FALSE); } if (!EngAssociateSurface(hsurf, ppdev->hdevEng, flHooks)) { DISPDBG((0,"DISP DrvEnableSurface failed EngAssociateSurface\n")); EngDeleteSurface(hsurf); return(FALSE); } if(!EngModifySurface(hsurf, ppdev->hdevEng, flHooks, 0, (DHSURF)dhsurf, ppdev->pVideoMemory, lDelta, NULL)) { DISPDBG((0,"DISP DrvEnableSurface failed EngModifySurface\n")); EngDeleteSurface(hsurf); return(FALSE); } ppdev->hsurfEng = (HSURF) hsurf; ppdev->pvTmpBuffer = (PVOID) dhsurf; mirrsurf->cx = ppdev->cxScreen; mirrsurf->cy = ppdev->cyScreen; mirrsurf->lDelta = ppdev->lDeltaScreen; mirrsurf->ulBitCount = ppdev->ulBitCount; mirrsurf->bIsScreen = TRUE; return(hsurf); } The mapped file will always be filled with Zero, so the image from the mapped file will be black. Can any one tell me what's wrong with the source code?

    - unable to open Tdi Connection Context on Windows Vista Hi All, Here I have a problem with TDI in Windows Vista, In My TDI Client Driver , Code to open the Transport Address executed successfully in Vista. But I am facing a problem while opening a TdiConnectionContext File object on Vista. I am creating a UNICODE_STRING data structure from a unicode string L"\\Device\\Tcp" and then creating an OBJECT_ATTRIBUTES data structure TdiDriverNameAttributes from a UNICODE_STRING. Then I initialize the Extended Attributes data structure members as follows. RtlCopyMemory(&ExtendedAttributesInformation->EaName, TdiConnectionContext, TDI_CONNECTION_CONTEXT_LENGTH); ExtendedAttributesInformation->EaNameLength = (sizeof (TdiConnectionContext) - 1) ExtendedAttributesInformation->EaValueLength = (sizeof (TdiConnectionContext) - 1). My call to ZwCreateFile completes with STATUS_INVALID_PARAMETER. ZwCreateFile(&hConnection, FILE_READ_EA | FILE_WRITE_EA, &TdiDriverNameAttributes, &IoStatusBlock, NULL, FILE_ATTRIBUTE_NORMAL, 0, FILE_OPEN_IF, 0, ExtendedAttributesInformation, EASize ); May I know the reason for failure? The same code is working fine on 2K & XP OS. Only on vista I came across this behavior. Thanks. Tag: how to bring Standard Layout tab Tag: 89944

    - setup class/interface class GUID dilemma Our old WDM driver uses the same GUID for its setup class and for its interface class. I have written a new WDF driver and am in a quandary over what to do about the GUIDs. Our application requires that the interface class GUID remain the same. That implies that I should change the setup class GUID. If I do, do I need to change the ClassName too? What will happen when users update from the old driver to the new driver if the drivers have a different setup class GUID and ClassName? Tag: how to bring Standard Layout tab Tag: 89943

    - Passing down IOCTLs I'm trying to figure out how IOCTLs make it all the way down to a PDO if they need to (for example through a disk class FDO down to a disk PDO, although I'm not sure there are other examples). For the subset of IOCTLs not supported by a generic FDO, is it conventional to use IoSkipCurrentIrpStackLocation and IoCallDriver in the dispatch routines for IRP_MJ_DEVICE_CONTROL and IRP_MJ_INTERNAL_DEVICE_CONTROL? I figure if the PDO doesn't recognize the requests it will just fail them anyway. The "DispatchDeviceControl in Higher-Level Drivers" section of the DDK docs seem to imply copying the current stack location to the next and installing a completion routine, but I don't see why this would be necessary if the FDO doesn't support the IOCTL and therefore doesn't need to do any post-processing on it. IoSkipCurrentIrpStackLocation seems more appropriate in that case. Tag: how to bring Standard Layout tab Tag: 89927

Hi all,
I m developing a monolithic printer driver UI,Which should
have LAYOUT(Standard) tab and ADVANCED(tree view). AS per the DDK
documentation in DLGPAGE I found DP_STD_DOCPROPPAGE1 can be used to
bring the layout tab.I am using COMPROPSHEETUI Structure.

As I was completely new to this,Could You please say,how can I
do it.

Thanks In Advance
