RE: TIMING

From my (not great) experience with timing function granularity issues
it seems that calling the Sleep() function with values like 1 or 2 does
NOT have the intuitive result namely to wake up in 1 or 2 ms. This
(please correct me if I err) is because time values are only updated at
the clock tick. So calling right AFTER the tick has the same effect as
Sleep(10). Right? If this is so, why describe Sleep as having a 1 ms
granularity?

Subject: [ntdev] Re: TDI drivers question

Actually, you would be writing a TDI Client - not a driver. There is
sample code in the DDK.

But what you probably want to do is write an NDIS driver - that would
allow
you to listen to any network traffic to any
NIC that the NDIS driver is bound to.

Here is some code
(example only) that will allow you to get your local IP Address.

The sample code from the DDK is in DDK\SRC\FileSys\Rdr2\Supplied\RxCE.

You can also get sample TDI Client code from www.osr.com

Look in the DDK for TDI Client information.

Subject: [ntdev] TDI drivers question

Hello everybody!

I have a problem, and I hope someone might be able to help… :wink:

I need a driver that “listens” to the network.
Well, it’s NOT a snoop or something like this - I want it
to listen ONLY to IP packets that are designated for the
machine.

In addition, I need it to be able to work on any layer below 3
(i.e.: it should work with modem, ISDN, Ethernet, token ring etc.)

For this reason, I thought to “bind” my driver on top of the TCP/IP
stack,
as a TDI driver. I thought that doing so will make me talk to the TCP/IP
stack
only, using the common API, and I won’t need to bother about low-level
protocols.

My questions:
1. Is it possible?
2. Will I see all the IP frames aimed to me? (Note: I want these packets
to arrive BOTH to my TDI driver AND to the application they were
designated to
3. If it’s impossible - what’s the best way to do so?
4. Does anybody have a sample code?

thanks in advance,

- Barak Mandelovich
