Installing minifilter from command line

I’m trying to install a minifilter using the method suggested in the IFS
doc., e.g.

rundll32 setupapi.dll, InstallHinfSection DefaultInstall 132
passThrough.inf

and getting an “Installation Failed” message box. The “right click”
install works fine.
I’m using W2003 EE server. What’s could be wrong?

Thanks!

Vitaly,

Try give a full path or append .\ to passthrough.inf. For e.g.

rundll32 setupapi.dll, InstallHinfSection DefaultInstall 132
.\passthrough.inf

Thanks

Vitaly,
