Starting from Windows XP, sbp2port creates a symbolic link like \DosDevices\Sbp2&LUNx&xx&Instancex for its PDO.

OK -
?
I have been searching for days on this topic, found lots of other people like me who got to the same level of frustration that I have over this question. So I’ll ask it and hope one of you can shed some light on the topic.
?
Does sbp2port.sys support applications interfacing with it via CreateFile(), and passing SCSI Pass-through IOCTLS to it (Hence - No need to ever write any customer kernel mode stuff, just application).
?
We spoke to Microsoft months back, and got the impression that this was possible. The Documentation on this topic hints that this is something one would do.
?
Anyone have an experience with this
?
Thanks
