HOWTO: ZwCreateFile on \device\atalkddp Requires Protocol #

ID: Q194635

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Win32 Device Driver Kit (DDK) for Windows NT, version 4.0

SUMMARY

A TDI Client Calling ZwCreateFile on \device\atalkddp must specify a protocol number.

MORE INFORMATION

Passing in \device\atalkddp to ZwCreateFile produces an error. You must specify a protocol number as follows:


   \device\atalkddp\0  for DDP protocol
   \device\atalkddp\2  for NBP protocol
   \device\atalkddp\3  for ATP protocol
   \device\atalkddp\7 for ADSP protocol

WinObj shows the device as \device\atalkddp. It is not trivial to discover these device names.
