Re: [Opensc-devel] PCSClite + OpenSC + RDesktop + Gemalto IDPrime .NET SmartCard

[Steven D B. <sb...@ca...>]

Admittedly I should have included more details.

Through RDesktop the Windows Server 2008 machine can see the card reader
and it knows if there is a card inserted or not.

When the card is inserted, it says No valid certificates found.

If I use a Virtual Box with the card reader redirected into the VM instance
of Windows 7 and use mstsc it works as expected.

The card reader seems to be fully supported under pcsclite, the card itself
seems to be the problem.

If I don't need this Gemalto library, how can I get this card supported
under OpenSC so I can use it via RDesktop?

  Hello

   I would like to be able to use my Gemalto IDPrime .NET (
   http://www.gemalto.com/products/dotnet_card/ ) card to login to a
   Windows
   Server from my Linux laptops.

  What will you use to do that? rdesktop? freerdp?

I answer myself: with rdesktop you'll have to use the smartcard
redirection.

e.g.
rdesktop -d AC -k fr -z -a 16 -u login windows_server -r scard

I've tested it with with Windows 2008R2 but I was unable to make it work
with W2012...

In my opinion you don't need the PKCS11 drivers on Linux but windows will
need the smartcard drivers.

Good luck, keep us updated if you managed to do something
