I have a project that will move the file to remote system and create a small
stub file at local volume. When user open that file it will open remotely.
As I know I can do it with a filter driver but my company does not like the
filter driver idea because customer does like it. Does any one have any idea
to do it without create the filter driver?
One way I am thinking about is to use Microsoft’s reparse point tag such as
IO_REPARSE_TAG_MOUNT_POINT
IO_REPARSE_TAG_HSM
IO_REPARSE_TAG_SIS
IO_REPARSE_TAG_FILTER_MANAGER
But the problem is Microsoft does not publish the data structure of
REPARSE_GUID_DATA_BUFFER for those tag. If any one know about the structure
of those tag or know how to open the stub file will open remotely without
filter driver, please let me know. Thank you in advance.
This is not a good idea. You can’t just re-use an existing filter
without knowing the full consequences.
By the way, none of the below tags will redirect remotely.

Ravi,
Thank you for the message. Yes, you are right. none of the below tags will
not redirect remotely. I know it needs to have the filter driver to
intercept its reparse point. However the customer will not accept it. What
should I do?

Run. With a customer that stupid and obstinate, you will just work and work
and never get paid. If you have to do it, make sure they pay at least
weekly and the checks clear before you get more than two weeks of effort
into this.
