In a fsfd how to get the notification when a network drive is mapped.
Why? When a request gets to the FSFD, it won’t see the network drive (Z:),
it’ll see something like \Device\LanmanRedirector\server\share\dir\file.c –
the mapped drive letter isn’t visible.

No such notifications for sure 
this is an internal affair of the NTLANMAN NP DLL and the SMB redirector.
You can only filter the first CREATE targeted at given network path.

Forget about the drive letters in FSFs. They are not visible there.
Especially this is true for SMB, where they are not necessary at all, and you
can access the files as \server\share\pathname.
Do not rely on anything related to drive letters with SMB.
