Hello,

in order to use SCs with Netscape you should get a
PKCS#11 module (library) from the SC vendor, if
available. Otherwise, use what they provide for use
with IE.

My project, SmartSign, works with Cyberflexes under
Linux.

Hope this helps,

Tommaso.

MUSCLE PCSC programming on Winsoz...

2001-01-18 Thread Tommaso Cucinotta

Hi all,

is out there any one with a little experience in programming PCSC under
Windows ? I cannot make the reader driver (and card manager) work
properly.
I'm using a Towitoko CHIPDRIVE micro reader, and towitoko drivers from
their web site, but it seems that SCARDMAN.EXE has MANY PROBLEMS (or
bugs?).

Any suggestions/ideas are wellcome !

Thanks to everyone,

Tommaso.


p.s.: How much is PCSC-Lite tied with Linux/Unix O.S. and unportable to
Windows ? If you replaced serial-port primitives, would it (in theory)
work under Windows ?

Why don't you try TrustCenter's gpkcs#11 ??
Bye.

I think that a superuser can do everything, including replace the user's
application with a malicious one which has the task to steal CHVs and
e-mail
them to him, or more realistically, he can activate some log activity of
the application that indirectly reveals the CHV.

Hope I didn't miss completely the question. Bye,

Tommaso Cucinotta.

MUSCLE WWT on Towitoko's CHIPDRIVE reader

2000-03-02 Thread Tommaso Cucinotta

Hi all,

I'd like to know how to handle this WWT for the reader, as i'm using SLB's
Cyberflex Access, and, as mentioned by some of you, it is very slow on RSA.
In fact, I can make it work correctly with 512-bit keys, but with 768 or
1024-bit keys, after 1 second, I get an error on CT-API call.
I've understood that I can change the default Waiting Time for the reader by
manipulating the ATR of the card, with the ChangeJavaATR command, is this
correct ? or should I write a cardlet to make the job ?

Thanks to everybody,

Tommaso.

p.s.: I'm using a Towitoko CHIPDRIVE reader.
