GINA Wrapper DLL

Support locked out users without a "generic" domain account:

• Extend the Windows Graphical Identification and Authentication (GINA) subsystem, which:
  • is responsible for capturing Ctrl-Alt-Del,
  • presents the login screen and
  • handles screen savers.
• The Windows GINA can be replaced by third-party DLLs, such as:
  • Novell NetWare.
  • Strong authentication products (smart cards, biometrics, etc.).
• P-Synch includes a GINA wrapper DLL that adds a password reset button in the login prompt.
• P-Synch also includes a GINA service program that adds this without modifying the GINA DLL.
• P-Synch GINA extensions:
  • Launch a kiosk-mode web browser.
  • Runs the browser with an unprivileged account.
