Q.

I'm trying to write an install program for a login extension. What registry entries are required?

A.

For a master extension under Windows 95/98, use the following:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Network\Novell\System Config\Network
	
Provider\Graphical Login\NWLGE\MYLOGIN]
	
"LoginExtName"="mylogin.DLL"
	
"LoginExtDesc"="This is a login master extension"
	
"LoginExtType"=dword:00008007

And for NT/2000/XP:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Novell\Graphical Login\NWLGE\MYLOGIN]
	
"LoginExtName"="mylogin.DLL"
	
"LoginExtDesc"="This is a login master extension"
	
"LoginExtType"=dword:00008007

The following values are defined to help you specify the login extension type:

0x0001 LOGIN_EXT_UI 
	
0x0002 LOGIN_EXT_AUTHENTICATE 
	
0x0004 LOGIN_EXT_SCRIPT 
	
0x4000 LOGIN_EXT_SECONDARY 
	
0x8000 LOGIN_EXT_MASTER

See the NDK documentation section for the Login Libraries for C and ActiveX Controls for more information.
