is that ok for everyone? does the code work correct, if there is
no setting in the config file?

Estonian eID works with no opensc.conf file present. ([3101] [3099])

Re: [opensc-devel] new pre release for 0.11.2 available

New *users* on windows should be directed cleanly and clearly to pre- 
compiled solutions.



the scb procedure works, maybe even quite good. but somehow
some people manage to work with the raw source or prefer it that
way (or don't know about scb).
New *developers* need also documentation and usually can either pick  
up from SCB or learn how to fulfill the requirement of 'zlib is  
required'.

It would be good to have opensc 0.11.2 soon, so I made another

It would be really good - especially becuase due to lack of time a  
year ago 0.11.1 has a regression that renders 0.11.1 linux packages  
unusable for Estonian eID ( changeset [3010] fixes that again)



Please test this and give feedback.


All is nice but I'd like to have a small enhancement in 0.11.2 that  
has been available for .ee users for some time already. Please see  
#132. IMHO that ticket should not affect current situation and opensc  
users but improves some user experience scenarios a lot.

Re: [opensc-devel] lsm pkcs#11 ?

2007-03-09 Thread Andreas Schwier
The project is actually implementing a software security module (rather
than a hardware security module / HSM) that uses a client/server
approach with a PKCS#11 library on the client side. You run the deamon
on one machine and use the PKCS#11 library on the client to access the
cryptographic token. Cryptographic material is stored in a file on the
server which is protected by some crypto-scheme. In a simplistic
scenario that does not require any FIPS or ITSEC evaluated key store,
you could put the server into a vault and have a cheap and minimalistic
HSM (no tamper resistance however).

The project can replace a HSM with a software implementation, but it
does not allow to use PKCS#11 modules on the server (which is guess is
what Andreas is looking for).

Kind regards,

Andreas

 Hello Andreas,
 
 Why a daemon is required?
 Can't the card transaction be used to sync between instances?
 And if caching is required you can cache certificates by thumbprint at

 did anyone have a look at this software and try it?

 if it does what I think and if we could attach opensc to the
 daemon side of it, then we might be able to to real locking etc,
 and still have multi applications access a card - if the daemon
 caches the certs etc.

 not sure if that idea works out, but might be worth a look.

Re: [opensc-devel] lsm pkcs#11 ?

2007-03-09 Thread Alon Bar-Lev

Thanks!

There is always egg and chiken conflict with this kind of approach...
In order to communicate with remote daemon using TCP/IP you need to
authenticate...
But you cannot authenticate since you cannot access the token...

This problem is common for most HSM modules as well... Not all allow
to use local smartcard in order to open a session to remote HSM.

I was more concerned regarding the statement that locking and
multi-application cannot be implemented without a daemon component. It
sounds a bit strange as I know several providers which implement this.

Best Regards,
Alon Bar-Lev.
