Hi All!
We want to write driver that can show user contents of WebDAV server as local disk. We analyse situation and find out that we MUST use FILE_DEVICE_NETWORK_FILE_SYSTEM.
And now we have small (? :)) trouble - we want to find which irp are called. How can we catch it?
And m.b. have some comments or advice to our task?

Are you trying to write your own filesystem redirector for
WebDAV or use the XP one? Am I taking your question
to be how to write a file system redirector?

Own filesystem redirector, sure - because our drive MUST works for Windows
NT 4.0/2000/XP.

Get the Microsoft IFS kit, and look at the SMBRMX example.
This is a redirector sample based on the SMB protocol. If you
are in a hurry, or can afford it look at the OSR FSDK
http://www.osr.com/toolkits_fsdk.shtml this will allow you to
get a filesytem quickly, and allow for easier migration when
Microsoft changes things.

But can we see such effect in some free-based system?
Because we don’t want to “pay without knowledge”.

Depends on what you mean? If you are intending to
go open source, you have a problem since neither
solution will allow you to do that. I guess you
could use the GNU ntifs.h (don’t trip over the errors)
and start rolling your own filesystem. Experience
says you will be out in a few years or so.
Both kits do provide source of a filesystem redirector
plus a library. No you will not get the sources to the
library. I didn’t mention it before, the Microsoft IFS
kit is around $1000, while OSR is $95,000 both
require a contract.

XP already has WebDAV redirector.
