Gina Error on Bootup

Important Notes

EAP-FAST Fails When Access Point Configured as Local RADIUS Server

The client adapter fails to authenticate using EAP-FAST when the access point is running Cisco IOS Release 12.3(2)JA2 and is configured as a local RADIUS server. The following message appears: “Unable to EAP-FAST authenticate the wireless user in the specified amount of time. Network infrastructure might be down.”

If your computer ever experiences a GINA error on bootup, boot to the safe mode command prompt. Then copy the msgina.dll file in the WinNT\System32 directory (Windows 2000) or Windows\System32 directory (Windows XP) over to a file named cscogina.dll. The copy command enables you to copy a source file (msgina.dll) to a destination file (cscogina.dll) within the same directory.

Reboot Required When Uninstalling ACU and ADU

Caution When you uninstall ACU and ADU, be sure to reboot your computer when prompted. Otherwise, the system may be rendered unable to boot, displaying the message “The Logon User Interface DLL cswGina.dll failed to load. Contact your system administrator to replace the DLL or restore the original DLL.”

Uninstalling Software Components

All profiles and stored PAC files are deleted if you use the Uninstall the previous installation option on the Previous Installation Detected Install Wizard window to uninstall the client adapter software. Cisco recommends that you use the Profile Manager’s export feature to save your profiles before uninstalling the software.

Profiles for PC-Cardbus Cards

The profiles for PC-Cardbus cards are tied to the slot in which the card is inserted. Therefore, you must always insert your PC-Cardbus card into the same slot, create profiles for both slots, or export the profiles for one slot and import them for the other slot.

Auto Profile Selection Enables Scan of Wireless Modes in Auto-Selected Profiles

When you enable auto profile selection, the client adapter ignores the selected profile’s wireless mode setting and scans the wireless modes specified by all the profiles in the auto profile selection list for an available network. Using this method, the client does not need to disassociate nor change the current profile while looking for networks in other profiles.
