For accessing remote computers (which the original query was about) something like ssh or secure telnet using smart card based keys for authentication would be more appropriate. Of course what you really want is for the session to be secure all the way to the card, not just to the

Hi, I think the PCSC is good enough if it enables access to the local smartcard to local proceses, and verifies that the user has UNIX permission to use the smartcard reader (for instance if /tmp/.pcsctx anc /tmp/.pcscrx are accessibe to the user). For remote authentication, a client/server

Hi, You're right, you have to change these two lines that it works properly. The standard file size for the 0x file (CHV) is 39 (0x27). We forgot to add the header while creating the file, so it is 16 bytes too short. It is strange that it worked for our cards. Thanks for your hint! Martin

Hi, The package looks fine for me. It fails for me with Cyberflex, but it's due to the timeout issue I have asked in the other thread in this mailing list. Just one question: do you intend to hanlde the case where the user logs in from a remote computer via, let's say `telnet` ? Because

Hi, This looks great. A couple of notes: the --aut0=aut0 XXX does not seem to work - it still uses the default keys. I checked the code and if cryptoflex is found then it overwrites the command line with the cryptoflex default aut0. This looks really good though - now I just need to
