Hi everyone I am trying to setup an OpenPGP Smartcard. AFAICT, nothing of the sort is discussed in the FAQs or in 'The Guide'.
What I have done so far (I am, as stated, using NetBSD 10.0 release) 1.- Install gnupg, which also installs scdaemon; 2.- Install pcscd and ccid just in case; 3.- Connect the USB smart card, of course. Here to the tricky part: GPG Documentation states that one should use EITHER gnupg's built-in scdaemon OR to use pcscd+ccid, the rationale behind it being that they interfere with each other since they are both trying to take control of the smart card. What I have tried: a) Bring up pcscd, either manually with rc.d or setting pcscd to YES in my rc.conf. In this case, I put 'disable-ccid' in my scdaemon.conf . OR b) Completely disable pcscd and just issue a 'gpg --card-edit' command. ...but: either way the command gpg --card-edit fails, even though, according to dmesg, the usb card is recognised without trouble. In the first case, it complains that the operation is not supported by the device. In the second one, even though I can clearly see that scdaemon is running after issuing the command, gpg still complains that 'the service is not running' - and yes, same happens with both a common user (albeit one on the wheel group) and with root, so it is not a permissions issue. Am I missing something here? Has anyone managed to get an OpenPGP SC running? Thanks a lot in advance!
