One thing to bare in mind is that there is no necessity to support this
feature in file systems. All the Microsoft ones do, but 3rd party file
systems do not have to.

In my FSFD I’m also using the same tracking
(http://www.osr.com/ntinsider/2002/tracking/tracking.htm) algorithm for W2K
and WXP, mostly because of “historical reasons”. One point in favor to start
using WXP xxxPerStreamContext API’s is that there will be (are) new Windows
OS releases and sticking with W2K-comaptible algorithm will become like
“swimming against river flow”.

Hi Fernando,
You should be able to use the W2k tracking algorithm fine under WXP, infact
that is what I do in my driver, or at least I have the option to use the w2k
one.
Using the new context tracking routines under Windows XP is really easy
though and is probably worth looking at.

Hi all,
I’m writing a FS filter to crypt/decrypt in real time. I’m using the
algorithm to tracking file objects described in OSR article
http://www.osr.com/ntinsider/2002/tracking/tracking.htm and it works fine in
Windows 2000. However, we known that in Windows XP there is a API to help to
do tracking these file objects. My question is. The algorithm used in
Windows 2000 will works fine at XP and later or have I impletment a new
algorithm using the API provided in Windows XP?
Thanks in advance,
Fernando.
