I tried to open a network adapter in Windows XP (SP1) through
IOCTL_NDISUIO_OPEN_DEVICE. But no matter what device name I paas into, the
function DeviceIoControl() always returns error code 2. I even tried to
enumerate the adapters and then used the buffer returned by
(IOCTL_NDISUIO_QUERY_BINDING),

            DeviceIoControl(
                        Handle,
                        IOCTL_NDISUIO_OPEN_DEVICE,
                        (LPVOID)(pQueryBinding +
pQueryBinding->DeviceNameOffset),
                        pQueryBinding->DeviceNameLength,
                        NULL,
                        0,
                        &BytesWritten,
                        NULL))

Here are the list of devices in my system,

0. \DEVICE\{7A68F24C-5D72-4430-AA88-6A484E0504BD}
    - 3Com 3C920 Integrated Fast Ethernet Controller (3C905C-TX Compatible)
1. \DEVICE\{4AD186B7-C99E-4247-B72E-2984784F79ED}
    - Texas Instrument WLAN Card

When I tried to open either one, I got error code 2. What is the device name
anyway? Isn't it "\DEVICE\{7A68F24C-5D72-4430-AA88-6A484E0504BD} " for the
first adapter?

Thanks a lot in advance.
