Dear All,

I'm in a real fix.For our project we purchased the
Advanced Card Systems,Hong Kong ACR 38 U software
development kit.They provided us with ACOS2
microprocessor cards with T=0,T=1 protocols.

When i later mailed them asking a doubt regarding the
project they said that AC0S2 card chip dose not
support PKI.

A card does not become by magic ready for PKI. There must be an application isntalled on the card which makes the card side stuff (cryptography) working. If the support said, that the card does not support PKI, this could mean that, the chip does not support cryptography, cannot execute programs ... Or this question is over the supports head. Usually the support people have not the knowledge and are not paid well. Don't expect correct and good answers.
Back to this application. In the case of MuscleCard this is the CardEdge Java Card Applet. So you need a Java Card and a proframm to install it. Is you card a Java Card? If not you have to implement the CardEdge by your own. That's a piece of cake. Maybe some minutes up to a few weeks. Google for CardEdge Specification or look at the MuscleCard website.


Bye, Karsten

So is it true that ACOS2 is not supported by Muscle card.What is the method of making it supported by Muscle for generating and storing keys and encrypting data inside the card using crypto algos.

Our test with the card shows that : MuscleTest prgm
responds with unrecognised token and pcsc test
pgm[both provided in PC/SC lite version 1.2.9 beta 6]
gives Card  Unresponsive.

Thanks in advance

Eagerly awaiting reply
