    Hi there

    I'd like to make review of all MS-Gina responsibilities in setting
    environment variables.

    I know of those variables, that are set by MS-Gina in WlxActivateUserShell:

    TMP, TEMP - in pEnvironment passed from WinLogon these are set to
    %SYSTEMROOT%\TEMP , but I have to change them to values from
    HKCU\Environment

    APPDATA, HOMEDRIVE, HOMEPATH - how to set them in reliable way? simply
    concatenating or cutting strings doesn't sound as good idea...

    CLIENTNAME, SESSIONNAME - what are they and how to set them?
    LOGONSERVER - what's that?

    Best regards and thanks for any help.
