Re: [CentOS] escd daemon
esc can let you look at your card in ways that are similar to what firefox-edit-prefrences-advanced-encryption can, except it is more limited, not as reliable (for instance right now FF is seeing my card details, but esc is not), and is more annoying (i.e. pops up in your way *every* time the card insertion is detected). My standard thing to do with esc is `yum remove esc`. every time I see it get installed on machines I use, I hope that it has finally got something I want, but in the RHEL 5.X series it has not. Todd - Mr. admin *_why_* did you reinstall that!? Even when this disclaimer is not here: I am not a contracting officer.

[CentOS] escd daemon
Helo, this morning I have had a pop up Window in the gnome desktop, that - the esc service is stopped - I should restart the esc service or - restart the computer But there is no esc servcie in CentOS 5 ?! What to do? As far as I know, the server is ok. So I have closed the pop up. It does not come up again after later login. -- Viele Grüße Helmut Drodofsky Internet XS Service GmbH Heßbrühlstraße 15 70565 Stuttgart Geschäftsführung Dr.-Ing.

Re: [CentOS] escd daemon
Sorry, I had searched linux esc with the result: Definition: ESCD: Extended System Configuration Data (BIOS, PNP)=-O I have never used smart cards and I will not handle smart cards. Can I erase it? yum search mentions this package. So I would prefer yum erase esc But: I will login in the future too ! Is this package mandatory for CentOS 6?
