Hi
Im trying to open a file(config file) in my filter driver. I need to open it
using Credentials of user account created for my software. How can i do
it???

Vishnu
Well you have to be called in the context of that user in order to
have those credentials. One solution is could be to have a
service that has those users credentials and have the service call
your driver so that you have its context.

Probably just like in usermode: via impersonation of the user account! There
are APIs available to kernel mode drivers to accomplish the same
functionality as in user mode.
Note, that the Zw* and Nt* functions where undocumented should be only
called from IRQL PASSIVE_LEVEL!
