The libpam-pkcs11 Ubuntu (and Debian) package contains both pkcs11_eventmgr and card_eventmgr. See [1]. > On the openSC wiki, the info regarding both, looks almost the same to me. What wiki page?

Exact. pkcs11_eventmgr works at the PKCS#11 level. card_eventmgr works at the PC/SC level. Not all PKCS#11 token are smart cards. Not all smart cards are PKCS#11 tokens. Hope it helps :-) Bye [1] http://packages.ubuntu.com/quantal/amd64/libpam-pkcs11/filelist -- Dr. Ludovic Rousseau _______________________________________________ opensc-devel mailing list opensc-devel@lists.opensc-project.org http://www.opensc-project.org/mailman/listinfo/opensc-devel
