52.2 Registering an Authentication Hook

  1. Create a string value called Authentication DLL in the HKCU\Software\NetWare\NAL\1.0 key of the Windows registry.

  2. Enter the full path to the authentication hook DLL as the value of the Authentication DLL entry created in Step 1.

If the DLL library cannot be found, you receive the following error message:

Could not locate Third Party Authentication DLL\n%s 

If the DLL is found inside the library but the NWAPPAuthenticateExtern function cannot be found (such as when the function is not exported), you receive the message:

Could not locate Entry Point in Third Party Authentication DLL\n%s

NOTE:%s refers to a variable that is passed in by the user and prints out on the screen.
