GINA Registry Settings

If you choose not to use the GINA configuration tool, you can edit the Windows registry settings in the following key:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ComputerAssociates\GINAUNLOCK]

This holds the value of the current chained GINA. Usually, this would be MSGINA.DLL, the default Microsoft Windows GINA, unless you were integrating with a product such as Novell.

link1_cmd

This is the complete command line to execute for link 1 on the Logon dialog.

link2_cmd

If the link2_cmd is blank, only the link1_cmd appears in the Logon Dialog Window.
