latest MS Critical update hosed my msgina

[emcee-ig]

I have an unattended install with a modified msgina.dll, it worked great until yesterday, when i reloaded a laptop and ran windowsupdate, when it finished installing , i rebooted, and my msgina was back to the default,

i now have to slipstream all the latest patches into my distro folder and modify that msgina,,

fun

why dont you just change the GinaDLL registry key? That way when msgina.dll is modified you won't have any problems.

where in the reg is this located?

[Tim A]

HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon

In there is the string value GinaDLL, which you can change to your gina dll name.

Hope that helps

ok, say I were to mod the reg to look for mygina.dll

the patch KB835732 replaces the existing msgina.dll.. what issues am i going to have ? what about dll dependencies?
