.NET and custom gina.dll / winlogon ?

Hi,

Is it possible to call c# class methods from within my custom gina.dll
(winlogon enviroment) ?
Have you ever faced similar problem?
Particularly, I'd like to call xml web services methods through .Net proxy
class exposed as a COM object.
Is my divagation right or is there better way of doing this?

Michal,

I would really, really avoid it. Also, afaik, it's unsupported, according to
KB article 841927:

What about auto-generated C++ proxy class instead of C#? Does it use
forbidden .Net code and it won't wok neither? Is it possible to disable
Managed Extensions for C++ in this case and link the class with gina?

Thanks for help!
