Hi,

I have it running on the web server (Windows Server 2003 Web Edition) for about 3 months (up to this day) without reboot. So probably it should fit your requirements…

Etherbridge is an expiremental driver and it was not updated for a long time. In some configurations it works, but in others don’t. In your case driver looks to overload system with packets duplications…

[Vadim Smirnov]

There is no proof and easy way to get full process path. This topic was discussed (in russian) in Windows Internals forum. Two ways were proposed (first is easier but second is more reliable):

I)
ZwQueryInformationProcess ( NtCurrentProcess(), ProcessBasicInformation, &ProcInfo, sizeof(ProcInfo), 0);

ProcInfo.PebBaseAddress->ProcessParameters->ApplicationName

II)
1. Get EPROCESS using IoGetCurrentProcess().
2. For NT 4.0 and 5.0 get SectionHandle using ObReferenceObjectByHandle() get SectionObject; for NT 5.1 just get SectionObject from EPROCESS.
3. From SectionObject get SegmentObject.
4. From SegmentObject get ControlArea.
5. From ControlArea get FilePointer (FileObjec pointert).
6. Using ObQueryNameString() get full path for the process.

This value is filled using KeQuerySystemTime (equal to user-mode NtQuerySystemTime). Here is the short description:

“System time is a count of 100-nanosecond intervals since January 1, 1601. System time is typically updated approximately every ten milliseconds. This value is computed for the GMT time zone.” (Windows DDK help)

In order to convert the m_SystemTime to SYSTEMTIME structure do the following:

1) Copy m_SystemTime to FILETIME structure (don’t use simple typecast, because alignment can be different).
2) Call FileTimeToSystemTime.

If you control DeviceTcp, DeviceUdp, DeviceIp, DeviceRawIp and DeviceMULTICAST then you have complete control over application’s (IE, ICQ, Outlook and etc…) access to the MS TCP/IP network stack. Under control I mean ability to block any network activity (create socket, listen port, connect remote host and et…). Is that your question?

But this does not mean that you control all network activity of the system, because it may have another network protocols installed (IPv6 an example). But even without installing additional protocols, control over TDI is not the same as control over network. If you try to block the network with your TDI filter then MS TCP/IP still continue packet routing, it still replies ICMP ping, network file and folder sharing still works and etc… This is because mentioned network activities never reach TDI level.

I hope I’ve answered your question…

[Vadim Smirnov]

I don’t understand what actually you mean under “control control the network of the system”. Please clarify if you need the correct answer…

[Vadim Smirnov]

I have not code for WinpkFilter, but the routines below demonstrate how I did it in Ethernet Bridge. Doing this using WinpkFilter is very similar. Please note, that you should also set NDIS flags NDIS_FLAGS_SKIP_LOOPBACK | NDIS_FLAGS_DONT_LOOPBACK before sending the packet over the network in order to avoid it to indicated back (in the code below it is done inside UF_SendPacketToAdapter but I did not provided it).

The code above do the following:

1) Release event for packet indication.
2) Set adapter into passthru mode (the state it was before you set TUNNEL mode).
3) Flush packet queue associated with the adapter.

For temporary stop filtering: 1 – is not necessary, 2 – should be be done, otherwise (if you exited the loop) the network will be forzen after all WinpkFilter internal buffers are used, 3 – should be done because if you have existed packet reading loop, to that moment you can have internal buffer pool exosted and the network frozen.

So, in addition to exiting the loop you should set the default mode over the interface and flush its packet queue. If you want to restore filtering, then set tunnel mode and enter the loop again.

[Vadim Smirnov]

Please pay attention to the routine below (it is available in PassThru and PacketSniffer samples), which actually stops WinpkFillter operations over the network interface and releases resources:

void ReleaseInterface()

{

// This function releases packets in the adapter queue and stops listening the interface

ADAPTER_MODE Mode;



Mode.dwFlags = 0;

Mode.hAdapterHandle = (HANDLE)AdList.m_nAdapterHandle[iIndex];



// Set NULL event to release previously set event object

api.SetPacketEvent(AdList.m_nAdapterHandle[iIndex], NULL);



// Close Event

if (hEvent)

CloseHandle ( hEvent );



// Set default adapter mode

api.SetAdapterMode(&Mode);



// Empty adapter packets queue

api.FlushAdapterPacketQueue (AdList.m_nAdapterHandle[iIndex]);

}

1) First issue with direct NDIS_OPEN_BLOCK modification works just like you have described. The only fix is hooking internal NDIS-routines and repatching the NDIS_OPEN_BLOCK each time when handlers are changed,

2) The second approach with substitution on NDIS_OPEN_BLOCK works fine, and in your case problem is somethere else, lines you have provided look OK.

In general NDIS hooking driver is relatively complicated and it is difficult to design such a driver from the scratch. So I would recommend to use one of the documented approaches (intermediate, filter hook or etc…) or license ready NDIS hooking solution instead of trying to create the new one.

[Vadim Smirnov]

Please refer DDK samples, it contains everything you need.

[Vadim Smirnov]

If you ask about WinpkFilter, then you can do it using the SendPacketToMstcp (if you want packet to be indicated from the name of another interface to the local TCP/IP stack) and SendPacketToNetwork (if you want it to be sent over the network from the interface different from received one). For both calls you should use corresponding network interface handles, both routines can be called with difefrent handles for the same packet any times you want. One note, if you want to bridge WAN interface you should also modify MAC addresses in the packet (this is point-to-point connection and MAC’s are used to distinguish different connections), otherwise NDISWAN won’t be able to find the corresponding link and may even crash the system…

[Vadim Smirnov]

I’m afraid no way without additional tricks like TDI filter driver.

[Vadim Smirnov]

The information was sent. Thank you for your interest.

[Vadim Smirnov]

Yes, we are sorry. but older versions (before 2.4 series) may have problems when running on Windows XP SP2. It does not mean that you MUST have problems, but it is possible and depends of your software/hardware configuration.
