What would be the best way for a newbie to come up to speed on FSFD? This is
a person who is an accomplished c/c++ programmer but has never done any
driver work before. Thanks.

Well if they can afford it take the OSR class of File Systems. Note: that
class has as a prerequisite knowing WDM drivers, and that is in general a
good idea. There is enough to learn about the Windows kernel in general,
before you jump into file systems.

Don,

I think that a course is a great idea, but premature at this point. I’d like
to see if the aptitude is there first.

Can you think of a good article or two that can start someone on their way?

Thanks.
