Hello
i have a legacy driver “filemon”
i have “BUILD” the sample and obtained the .sys binary file
How can i load and run the driver
and also want to check out its debug info
i have tried to write an application with SERVICES, and also some
Registry entries.
What exactly should i do to load and run the driver.
Help pls !!!
Regards
Maneel
Hi Maneel,
Just look at the installation files as mydriver.inf and mydriver.sys. These two files are needed cos ur driver is a file system filter driver so u need to prepare the filterdriver inf for your .sys. So just look at the sample file system filter driver’s inf.
Good Luck,
.

Filemon was designed to be loaded and run by an application. Somethings to
be aware of:
Filemon is not free source, http://www.sysinternals.com/ has pulled
the sources for filemon since so many people took this as the basis of a
product without paying the royalties.
Since you have the source, you obviously have it for an older
version, be aware this can cause problems on some revisions of Windows.
Given that a simple way to load this driver would be to use the OSR Driver
Loader http://www.osronline.com/article.cfm?id=157

Get out a second system and run WinDBG see:
http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/ddk/debugging/default.mspx. Or for a simple
test get DebugView from
http://www.sysinternals.com/ntw2k/freeware/debugview.shtml or DebugMon from
http://www.osronline.com/article.cfm?id=99.

For purposes of loading a “legacy” driver, look at the so-named entry at
