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

[Florent D. <fde...@gm...>]

If you can login with the windows mstsc program then you should have a more
specific look on what you're using on your Linux machine.

What is the output of the pcsc_scan command ? (if you have the package
pcsc-tools installed)

What version of rdesktop do you use?
What version of pcsclite do you use?

Again, I don't think you need the PKCS11 drivers on your Linux. You just
redirect the smartcard through RDP thanks to libpcsclite.

If you compile yourself rdesktop, you want to get a more verbose output by
compiling it with --with-debug-smartcard to get more info.

But if you go that way, I suggest you use the rdesktop-users mailing list.
