Re: [rdesktop-devel] smart card support

[Sangeeta V. <Sangeeta.Varma@Sun.COM>]

We are actually going down the PC/SC way using the Smartcard Resource 
Manager API, implemented by MUSCLE on www.linuxnet.com.

Each RDP packet needs to be of course analysed to see what command is it 
sending next to the smartcard and then serviced. We are building up on 
some work already done in this area by Jeroen Meijer.
