Hi, All:
I have a question about the reparse-point file restore. For example, I have
a minifilter running on the same file server(windows) as the reparse-point
files(stubs). The user can open the reparse-point file (restore) with
double-click opening. when the user double-click the stub file, the
minifilter will get the real content of the file so the user can open the
content file instead. This implementation is done by using IRP_MJ_CREATE.
The user can open the stub file within windows environment both in local
and from remote client. The minifilter driver is only running on the file
server, and the remote client accesses the stub file through shared folder
from the file server.
My question is if we have some UNIX/LINUX or MAC OS machines as clients,
and if we can access(samba?) the shared folder on the windows file server
(running the minifilter). Can we double click and open the stub files like
in the pure windows environment ? I guess not. Why ?
Thank you
