Ok. I would debug the crash will filemon (your variation) and windows symbols to see what is going wrong. Feel free to post some of the debugging information (stack trace, etc.) here so folks can help you out. But you will need to provide information about the failure in order for anyone to draw on their experiences to help you.

in2k
Hi,
I am testing it on win2K. The filter driver I am using is filemon with minor
change, Hooking on to the D drive in driver entry. The filter driver runs
fine on development system. But when I run the same on my deployment system
it crashes.
I am using Numega’s softIce for debugging.
Is there anything wrong am doing.
regards,
shivas

Win2kThis is a driver that you are developing ??? There are hundreds and
thousands of reasons why it might crash. From system to system the file
system contents may be different, the driver’s that load could be
different, different file system types, etc. etc. You need to provide
specifics, and even then, you should hook up a debugger (and maybe a
checked Windows 2000 build) and get the examine the crash. You should
also consider getting symbols for your build, which can be done
automatically by WINDBG through Microsoft’s symbol server. You can also
do this in a post mortim way by using the crash dump that is generated
when the system crashes, assuming of course your system if creating a
crash dump.Questions:
- what is the Windows 2000 configuration?
- what filter driver are you talking about? your own?
- what is your experience level with kernel debuggers, like WINDBG?
- have you done crash dump analysis?

Subject: [ntfsd] Question on File System Filter driver on XP and Win2kHi All,
I have a File system filter driver(similar to Filemon). I have
created the registry entry so that the driver loads automatically (START =
2). After I put the .sys file in the specific image path and restart the
system, the system crashes.I tried it on two win2k systems it crashed one system but is running
fine on the other.Can anyone throw some light as to why such behaviour is seen. Is
there any way that I can understand the behaviour.regards,
