Thomas,

with the introduction of PnP the way you intruduce a device
to the system has been changed, too. You should call

        status = IoRegisterDeviceInterface(
            PhysicalDeviceObject,  // Your device object
            &SmartCardReaderGuid,  // GUID provided by smclib
            NULL,                            // An internal name you don't
need
            &deviceExtension->PnPDeviceName // Buffer for the device name
            );

This device interface must be enable once the driver started:

        status = IoSetDeviceInterfaceState(
            &deviceExtension->PnPDeviceName,
            TRUE
            );

Both calls are documented in the NT5 DDK.
The examples provided in the DDK include this code already.

Is the SmartcardCreateLink still necessary for NT5.0 drivers ? I cannot
find it in the samples which are provided in the NT 5.0 DDK.
If this call is not necessary anymore, how does the resource manager
recognize a IFD handler ?
I ask this question because my NT 5.0 driver starts but is not
recognized by the resource manager.
