Does Microsoft IFSkit available for NT? And why the UDF file system by
Microsoft is read-only? Is the reason technical or commercial?

Sirish,
You should be able to use the W2K IFSKit to develop NT 4.0 filters.
Also note that the XPXP1 version of the IFSKit contains separate build
environments for both Windows 2000 & Windows XP.
UDFS was originally written as a readonly file system because there were
issues with what the writable format was going to look like. These
issues have been resolved and a writeable version of UDFS will be
available in a future release of NT. For now there are 3rd party
writable UDFS file systems that are available.

You’re gonna have troubles running your driver on NT4 that was built using
W2k/WXP DDK. See my article on building drivers for NT4
