I have written my own, plus I have modified others.  It is not too 
difficult, but the available documentation is sparse.   Had I known 
about pgina, I never would have written my own.

Another open source gina is the "agreement" gina that puts up security 
notices.   I cannot find the link right now. The gina model is quite 
simplistic (if not simple) and readily understandable.  Anyway,  if you 
have never worked with windows system development tools, you are in for 
a treat. 8)

Microsoft publishes two gina samples with the SDK.  Both are flawed, 
but it might get you started.
