that way the card is tied to the software which was used in the first step and ensures the company can sell you both - card and software. no way to use it with opensc unless you can format it so opensc can create the basic pkcs#15 structure. > I take a chance and send apdu commands above, and get result below: not supported - you can't format the card (or it needs different commands or apdu or ...). > Why new card is in operational mode? the marketing might tell you something about a unique customer experience, less trouble, and all working great - if you use their software with their card. not sure if they meant to do this or not: but the card is tied to their software and thus they can sell both to you. I guess many companies make more money on client software than on the cards, so they might be very interested in selling both as a solution and some have this even as active goal to not sell any card that can be used with someones else software. this is my interpretation of what I see, your might vary. > I want use smartcard only for store file with username and password.
