I believe this is the best list to ask anything about open source crypto hardware (smart card) related software questions. > What's the current status of CSP - support for OpenSC? The way forward is a minidriver. It does not require signing by MS (like CSP-s do) and it is a more direct mapping upon PKCS#15 like structures in libopensc. While the architecture has some glitches and limitations, it is the only logical step for smart cards. I don't know about the status of any PKCS#11-CSPs, IMHO they are mostly dead. At least a PKCS#11 based CSP can't provide the same integration features like a minidriver (the two world views don't match that well) > OpenSC-pkcs11 works fine for me in windows, but I'd like > to use not only pkcs11based tools but csp based apps too > > I've tried some binaries from OpenSC links [1] without success > > Any (working / updated ) link or information on pkcs11 based CSP's? > Seems that scb is outdated. is it correct? Both linked pages are unfortunately morally outdated and obsolete (look for tags in lower right corner) SCB is obsolete because there's a native Windows installer these days and applications (like Putty) can use PKCS#11. Expect an e-mail about the state of nightly builds [2], upcoming 0.12.1 release (candidates) [3] and Windows MSI installers for x86/64 [4] in the nearest future.
