Subject: [SunRay-Users] Smartcard Problem

My smartcard against a Linux server stopped working this afternoon. I
just get a hang with a grey screen and a static star burst,

I see

-rw-r----- 1 root utadmin 16384 2012-01-18 13:34 auth_log

which seems to be the time the hang started,

That log ends with

It's not timestamped but it looks like the first batch is the typical
sequence it uses to identify the card successfully. And the second looks
like it crashed in the middle.

How do we recover from this?

All the non-smartcard sessions are fine, so I hate doing a disruptive
utrestart (assuming that would fix it).


Well as an update we tried a warm utrestart with no effect on the smartcard problem. Haven't tried a cold restart since that will kill 25 running sessions that don't use smartcards.

Is there anything else to try? The way the log reads, stopping in mid sentence make me think a process has died. Is that the case or is the smartcard authentication done within utauthd (a java process which is still alive and well).

Is it possible to restart utauthd without killing sessions?
