Hi, > What's a FileSystem Filter Driver? This is a driver that intercepts calls to the filesystem - for example for monitoring or to do additional access checks. Such a filter driver can then pass the call down to the filesystem or just cancel the call and (for example) return "access denied". Under Windows a pretty well-known filter driver is FileMon at www.sysinternals.com. Thex also have a Linux version but (ahhh) without Source (the source for the Windows-Version is available). The Linux-Version can be found at http://www.sysinternals.com/linux/utilities/filemon.shtml I guess what they are doing is similar to the way strace works - but I'm not sure. Hmmm, let us strace this thing ;-)))) Here are two Links that might help to implement such a thing under Linux (the most interesting is DaZuKo): http://www.dazuko.org/ http://oss.sgi.com/projects/fam/ Bye Michael - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/ | |||||||||
