Hi,
I'm still having troubles with running smart card services on my Mac. I
have OS X Panther. My reader is the Cardman 2020 (USB).

When I was installing reader driver I was learned that all I need to
start working with smart cards is the driver, PCSC framework (based on
MUSCLE API) and pcscd demon running. I got it all. Reader is working
properly. This is what I got when run pcsctest from the command line:
1) Have you smart card with the MuscleCard applet installed? If no, it
will never work.
2) Have you inserted the ATR of the card in the Info.plist file in the
Service directory? (maybe you can use bundleTool).

Hi,

At the start I want to thank everyone, especially Karsten Ohme for interesting with my problem.

My case is not such simple. I got a smart card which contains data (two keys and certificates protected by PINs), the card was formatted on PC. My task is to write software that facilitate reading of such smart cards also on Mac. In other words, if someone decide to use such smart card on Mac there should be no troubles with using it (for digital signature purposes).

So I can't just format card as if were a new one. I have to find some way (easiest and cheapest) to write a software that supports such PC formatted smart cards on Mac and make such smart cards to be fully usable.

Any suggestions how do do it in the simplest way possible ? I guess I have to find or write proper token driver to communicate with the card properly. Maybe there is other way ?

One again, thanks for the help.
Best regards,
Tom.
