Dear all,
This may be a silly question (I am not a real expert in this area), so
please tell me (politely!) if it is.... Is there any way that CCID could
work with Rainbow iKey3000 USB tokens? Although they are no longer made, we
are still using them and others may be as well.
Some background: we have been using them to hold a public key for use with
OpenSSH on various flavours of Linux for quite a long time, but I can't get
them to work with release candidate 2 of the upcoming openSUSE 11.4 release.
After some research I have come to the conclusion that the problem is that
we have been relying on OpenCT. openSUSE has moved smartcard support from
hald to udev in 11.4, and this, or something else, has broken the
communication between pcscd and the OpenCT driver with a message like:
pcscd: dyn_unix.c:81:DYN_GetAddress() IFDHCreateChannelByName:
/usr/lib/readers/openct-ifd.bundle/Contents/Linux/openct-ifd.so: undefined
symbol: IFDHCreateChannelByName
pcscd: readerfactory.c:962:RFInitializeReader() Open Port 0x200000 Failed
(usb:04b9/1300:libusb-1.0:5:10)
pcscd: readerfactory.c:273:RFAddReader() Rainbow iKey 3000 init failed.
pcscd: utils.c:95:CheckForOpenCT() Remove OpenCT and try again
and indeed when I look through the OpenCT sources, IFDHCreateChannelByName
is not implemented anywhere. Both the error message itself and posts such as
this one from Andreas Jellinghaus:
http://old.nabble.com/ccid,-pcsclite,-opensc---openct-td19324563.html
seem to suggest that we should switch from OpenCT to CCID, but it doesn't
look to me that CCID supports this token. pcscd produces no output at all
when it is inserted.
Does anyone know if it is it possible to use these tokens with CCID, or do
we have to start looking for a replacement?
The system I have been experimenting on is openSUSE 11.4RC2, with the
distro-supplied packages:
pcsc-ccid-1.4.1
pcsc-lite-1.6.6
"/usr/sbin/pcscd --version" gives:
pcsc-lite version 1.6.6.

pcscd started as "LIBCCID_ifdLogLevel=0x000F pcscd --foreground --debug --apdu"
does not react at all when the card is inserted.
The "parse -p" output for this device is:
