I don't know if people are getting my messages, but I'm doing something 
similar.  I'm using a GPK 8000 card and trying to use JSSE SSL with it, but 
I'm having a hell of a time trying to get the two to co-operate.  It seems 
like SSL can take information from a certificate file / stream, but that's 
about it.  I can't find a way to use the smart card to store the 
information to feed into SSL.  Perhaps the easiest way would be to simply 
store the certificate on the smart card, open a FileInputStream to it and 
feed that into KeyStore.  You'll have to make the certificate small 
though.  That's what I'm going to try next (I have the file system 
interface simplified to allow this, but I can't seem to get SSL to accept 
anything right now without throwing a "Untrusted Server Cert Chain" 
exception.  god I love java...

I'm assuming you've used/seen the sample applications?  They show how to 
load a certificate (duke's) and use it for SSL communications.  Hope this 
helps.  If you get it working, drop me a line too.

Thanks
