Just a thought... why do you use gpg?
Mainly because of my paranoia, and partly because I've used PGP since it was
a DOS based
program! :)
which feature you require?
Signing / encrypting messages. However, I quite like the idea of
restricting admin access to my
server using smartcards - it would plug a few potential security holes.
So why don't you use standard mail client such as mozilla
thunderbird?
It support S/MIME and PKCS#11 so that you can encrypt/sign
messages and using smartcard!!!
You don't have to use gpg for this.
Can you recommend any further smartcard reading?
Yes...
But you need to focus... What level? Programmer? Administrator?
1. Most popular for linux starting point is www.opensc.org.
2. Be sure your smartcard support PKCS#11 interface
http://www.rsasecurity.com/rsalabs/pkcs/pkcs-11/index.html.
3. Be sure your smartcard support pcsc-lite
http://pcsclite.alioth.debian.org/
4. Be sure your USB reader supports CCID driver
http://pcsclite.alioth.debian.org/
5. There is PAM PKCS#11 at www.opensc.org...
6. If you need one smartcard to be used on Windows machine and
Linux machine - talk to me...
