Hello :
Any ideas about how to hook the data coming to SMTP i.e., port 25 or any other port say 80 or 21…
I want to know how is it possible in user mode or will i have to mess up with kernel mode stuff…monitor network packets… something like tcpdump… I want it to be as simple as possible.
regards

Hi
Use the Winsock 2.0 Layer Service Provider mechanism, You can see the sample
in MSDN Samples.

You can inject your own DLL which will hook WinSock. Note that you will need to hook Read/WriteFile on sockets too.

No reliable way in user mode. Even user mode programs are not
obligated to go through winsock. What if somebody has their own
winsock?
Hooking, even if possible, is not supported by the O/S, thus it is only
good for fun, not for production.

According to MSDN, the full version of Network Monitor 2.0 has a
“monitor” function that should be able to do this from user mode. The
idea is that NetMon (which is also a GUI app that network administrators
can use to sniff the wire) already necessarily implements the TDI
filtering and user-mode propagation plumbing, so you just write a
user-model DLL that plugs into NetMon and receives notifications every
time a particular packet (whose parameters you specify) comes in.
The PROBLEM is that the stupid Platform SDK (are you listening, MS???)
does not include a monitor sample even though MSDN insists that it does.

Are you sure?
IIRC NetMon loads one more Packet-like protocol driver, which is notified on any packets sent and received by the machine.
NetMon’s driver cannot translate packets or filter them.
I see no idea why NetMon, being a low-level, packet-level app, has TDI filtering.

I am not sure of the method used by the NetMon driver to capture
traffic; I may have been jumping to conclusions by calling it TDI. On
the other hand, it doesn’t matter, because the original question was how
to capture traffic from user mode.

Hi,
I am writing a SCSI miniport driver in that I want to read a config file. How can I do that to read the file. Can I use general file calls like open, close for reading the file.
If it is not possible to use general file calls like open, close etc please tell me how I will be able to read the config file.
thanks and regards
sreenivas

If you are willing to give up portability with windos9x/Me (no great
sacrifice there,) then you can use all of the standard nt ddk in your scsi
miniport. However in order to build this creature, you must put your ddk
calls in a separate source module that does not use the miniport include
files, but the standard ddk include files instead. You also have to be aware
that almost all of the DDK functions are prohibitied at >= DISPATCH_LEVEL,
while almost all of your miniport functions will be called at >=
DISPATCH_LEVEL. DriverEntry is however the place where you could read your
config file safely, using standard ddk calls (as outlined above, perhaps
wrapping them in a separate source module for compilation reasons.)

As Mark wrote, you can read files. But why do you want a file?
Why is the Registry not good for you? In Windows it is a custom
to store settings in the Registry. There are good reasons to follow
the custom. For example, the user may backup the Registry and
reasonably hope that he backed up all of the device settings, but
your settings will not be backed up. Also, with the Registry you
don’t need to worry about how you name your settings storage - your
device will be given a unique registry key to which you have
an easy access from the driver.

He will have the same problem, as there are no registry reading functions in

You get an ASCII string passed to your FindAdapter that is directly loaded
from the registry. You only get one pointer to one REG_SZ value, but you
should be able to pretty well put what you want it. Be aware that you also
have no RtlXxxx funrions that allow you to manipulate strings.

In a previous life, I pretty much explored the outer limits of what can and
can’t be done to access config data from a SCSI miniport driver. Gary is
right in that you do get a pointer to a string in FindAdapter. But that is
not especially helpful. Mark is right, in that SCSIPORT doesn’t have it’s
own registry key, but *your* driver does, and your driver entry gets a
PUNICODE_STRING containing the name of that key, for NT4 and Win2K, anyway.
You get a null for that parameter in Win9X, but the registry key is there.
All the registry access functions work just fine, though you have to break
the pure SCSI miniport model by including NTDDK.h in a separate module from
the module that includes miniport.h. This does work for Win9X, you just
have to know the path to your key internally, instead of it getting handed
to you by the OS.
If you are not the boot disk driver, you *may* be able to read and write
from files in your DriverEntry or FindAdapter routines, if they are called
after the boot driver has initialized enough to support IOs from the IO
manager. If you are the boot disk driver, you can’t do file IO, as the IO
manager will check your init status before calling your StartIo routines,
discover you haven’t returned from your init, and will fail the CreateFile
call. On Win9X, even if you are the boot driver, you can use the extended
INT21h interface to do any file access you want. But who would do that?
