asked on

GINA, DLL's and stuff.

Hi,
I have downloaded the Gina stub sample, but what effect would it have to install this proxy DLL. I'm struggling to see the different functionality that will occur.

Anyone used this?

Well It can hang your Windows and you will have a hard time fixing it afterward because you will loose access to your system if it has a bug.

The proxy is mainly there as a sample because often people do not need to replace gina, but merely access some information available only to GINAs. I once did a single signon that needed to grab the password, So I wrote a proxy because I did not want to implement the functionality of the real Gina.

As it is a proxy, you will hardly notice a difference - it will just foward the calls to the original gina.dll.
