Does anyone know whether the IFS Kit for Windows XP comes with the Mini RDR
(MrxSMB) sample source codes or not?
Is it better to use the RDR2 model to build a netowrk redirector or to write
a complete native network file system driver?
Thanks,
Ahmed

Ahmed,
The Windows XP IFS kit contains the samples SMBMRX and NULMRX:
SMBMrx
?
The smbmrx is a fully functional network provider, with the ability to communicate with any server that supports NT4 level of CIFS, including working with a domain or workgroup server.
NulMrx
This is a simple network provider and driver provided to illustrate how network providers bind to the Multi-Protocol Router and redirectors to the Multiple UNC Provider. The nulmrx sample has very limited functionality:
Map a share like net use * \nulsvr\share.
Enumerate the directory on the drive mapped above and see the volume info and a sample file at the root.
This is all faked in the driver code. It has no create/read/write abilty.
Also see http://www.osr.com/resources_ifsfaq.shtml#Q18
Hope this helps.
