Connect smart card reader over usb and access digital signature certificate

Hi,
I got digital signature certificate stored in a smart card.I places smart card into card reader and plugged usb port of server.
I can see card reader in windows environment.My problem is to connect card reader and access digital signature certificate using java code.
I thinh it needs javax.smartcardio but i did not find necessary jar file for jdk 1.5.xx.
1- Where can i download jar fiel for javax.smartcardio for jdk 1.5.xx
2- Is there a blog or forum thread to help me to use smart card over usb?
Thanks.

One of the beauty of Java is that when the Java VM does not let you do something (here: accessing a Smart Card), there is no way that a purely Java solution will add this functionality.
Hence, what you ask simply can not be done in pure Java (1.)5. Some machine-specific non-java code is required. And you did not specify your target.
Unless a jar file could contain machine-specific code (I don't know if this is the case, and I never made one such jar file), there seems to be no way a jar file could help.

Token and smart card reader are not detected on Mavericks if not plugged on a USB port during system boot

Well, both token and smart card reader are not detected on OS X 10.9 if not plugged on a USB port during system boot. So, if I am already working within the system and need to use my certificates I have to plug the token or smart card reader on a USB port and restart Mavericks.
Token is a GD Starsign and Smart Card Reader is a SCR3310 v2.
Thoughts?

SCS is a very good app, since I've read that Apple has discontinued support for PC/SC interfaces after the release of Mountain Lion.
(My previous installation was a Mavericks upgrade from Lion)
However, I don't know what and how to debug using Smart Card Services. Do you know any commands to use?
Apparently, the SC reader reports no issues: the LED is blinking blue when no smart card is present and becomes fixed blue when a smart card is inserted – according to the manuals, this shows that there is correct communication between the OS and the CCID reader.
I don't know what to do; I'm beginning to hypothesize it's a digital signer issue. In fact, my smart card only supports one application called File Protector (by Actalis) to officially sign digital documents. This application seems to have major difficulties in identifying the miniLector EVO.
The generic and ambiguous internal error comes when I try to manually identify the peripheral.
Athena CNS is one of the Italian smart cards and is automatically recognized and configured (so it's correct – no doubts about this), while "ACS ACR 38U-CCID 00 00" seems to be the real name of the miniLector.
(I'm assuming this because System Information also returns that the real manufacturer is ACS... bit4id is a re-brander)
However, when I click on it and then tap OK, it returns internal error.
As first attempt, I would try to completely erase&clean File Protector files to try a reinstall. Then, if this still doesn't work, I'd debug using the terminal.
So:
- Do you know any applications to 100% clean files created by an installer?
- Do you have in mind any solutions that I might have forgotten?
Thanks in advance from an OS X fan!

Blackberry Smart Card Reader 7250 and Blackberry Bold 9000 connecting and pairing

As the subject line states, I am trying to connect and pair the Card Reader with the Device. I am unsuccessful in following the steps to Pair the Device with the Card Reader.
When I attemp to Click Connect from the Security Options/Smart Card/Registered Reader Drivers/Blackberry, and after I enter the reader ID on the device I receive an error "Connection to unknow device fail" and then it tries to connect 2 more times, and I receive the error "Unable to connect your Blackberry Smart Card Reader. Please verify that the reader is turned on, that you have correctly specified the reader ID, and that the reader is not alreadt paired with another Blackberry.
Could someone provide some assistance?

I've received the same error. It's a known issue with a batch of new readers. I called RIM and they said an updated software package should be made available online in the next day or so which will address/resolve the problem.

MS Remote Desktop and smart card reader

I have installed MS Remote Desktop Conn. on my iMac and connected a smart card reader via the USB. Although my reader energizes when the computer is on, the computer doesn't seem to recognize the reader. When I insert a CAC card into the reader and try to log in remotely, I continue to get a "username/password" box instead of the CAC PIN number. Do I need to install some kind of smart card driver or does Apple already have it? I'm at a loss as to how to fix this.

I was able to get rdesktop 1.6.0 to install on my Mac and I was able to get CAC log-in to work.
However, the installation is a little tricky. I downloaded rdesktop 1.6.0 from this link:
<<http://www.rdesktop.org>>
My instructions for installation:
1. Make sure Xcode Tools is installed on your computer. It should be on your OS X install disk.
2. Find out where your X11 libraries are located:
-From the Finder menu, selct "Go" >> "Go to Folder..."
-Type (without the quotes) "/usr/X11", and click "Go"
You should see a bunch of folders. Make sure the "include" and "lib" folders are there. Otherwise you need to find out where the X11 "include" and "lib" folders are located on your computer.
3. Download rdesktop and place the (unarchived) rdesktop-1.6.0 folder on your Desktop
4. Open the X11 application (should be in your Utilities folder)
5. In the X11 window type the following (without the quotes):
"cd Desktop/rdesktop-1.6.0 && ./configure --enable-smartcard -x-includes=/usr/X11/include -x-libraries=/usr/X11/lib && make && sudo make install"
4. Hit enter. When prompted, enter your administrator password and hit enter.
rdesktop should now be installed in the following folder:
/usr/local/bin
So, to launch rdesktop with smartcard log in enabled, open the X11 application (or Terminal application) and type the following (without the quotes, and replace your.server.address with the server address):
"cd /usr/local/bin && ./rdesktop -r scard your.server.address"
Hit enter and it should launch a new X11 window that will try to access the remote server where you should be prompted for your PIN.
To explore more options with rdesktop, open X11 and type the following (without quotes):
"cd /usr/local/bin && ./rdesktop"
Hit enter and you should get a list of options available to rdesktop.

Access to smart card reader on Win 8.1 RDP Host

Hi,
I have a customer that has a couple of Windows 8.1 Pro computers, that has a smart card reader in the local keyboard.
Until a few months ago, they could RDP to the desktop computer from a RDP client such as another Windows PC, a Mac or a mobile device.
The problem is now that when accessing the desktop computer (with the smart card reader keyboard) from a RDP client, the smart card reader is not available in the RDP session anymore. This prevents them from logging on to an application in the network that
requires their smart card.
Can someone perhaps point me in a direction where this can be solved, either with the MS RDP host or with some 3rd party RDP host applications?
(Teamviewer or similar remote support applications works, but that is not what the customer want...)
Since it worked like a charm up until 2-3 months ago, there must have been some update to Win 8.1 that prevents this by default?
Thanks in advance,
/Mikael Forslund

Hi Mikael Forslund,
I am supposing you attempted to use smart card reader connected directly to Remote Desktop terminal. Basically your RDP session should redirected smart card reader to the client side and will not see readers connected to the host side
because enable Safety equipment such like smart card reader will cause highly insecure and that is not by design.
We suggest using smart card reader on local RDP client for your issue.
“The reverse is also true; if you RDP into a session from the start you will never see any local smartcard readers as Winscard will detect it’s running in an RDP session and no calls to Winscard will ever reach the local PC/SC layer –
everything will be redirected to the connecting client.”

Does Java Card require a USB CCID-compliant smart card reader?

Hi experts,
Does Java Card require a USB CCID-compliant smart card reader? I'm currently working with PC/SC usb token and it requires usb CCID-compliant smart card reader, which seems very inconvenient for my clients and I'm wondering if Java Card has the same issue? (I'm thinking about switching the project to Java Card)
Any help will be much appreciated!
Z.Zen

Hi,
You will still need to install drivers for some card readers to function correctly. I know some work out of the box on Windows and OS X (10.5+ at least) ships with the pcsclite CCID driver from the Muscle card project. When I view my reader in Windows device manager the Manufacturer is "USB CCID Compliant".
The only real difference between what you are doing with the USB CCID token and Java Card is that the card and reader are separate in the Java Card option where as the USB token has the reader and chip in one package.
Cheers,
Shane

Broadcom USB Smart Card reader not working

After upgrading my Vista Business SP2 (32-bit) to Windows 7 Ultimate RC (32-bit) my Broadcom USB smart card reader does not work any longer (Dell Latitude E6400 with built in smart card reader).
The newest available driver from dell support was already tested (Broadcom, driver date 09/23/2008, version 1.0.0.1, digitally signed WHQL, released by dell in March 09), but the device can not start (Error code 10) with Windows 7.
With the Microsoft WUDF Driver (Usbccid, driver date 06/21/2006, version 6.1.7100.0) the device starts but whenever I insert my smart card an additional device is detected (other device - smart card) but no driver found - Error message is: The drivers for this device are not installed. (Code 28).
What else can I try to get this reader working again (with vista sp2 the smart card reader was working fine with the broadcom driver)?

I have also an USB card reader that works fine on XP PCs but Win7 does not recognise it, can msft make a sd reader driver that works pls.
Hi
Sorry, but the way the industry works is that Microsoft develops Windows and Hardware manufacturers develop drivers for their products. Microsoft does maintain a complete division (MSDN) that is dedicated to assisting hardware and software manufacturers in developing their products for compatibility with Windows.
All of the drivers that are contained on the Windows installation disk and on Windows Update are placed there by the manufacturers of the devices. This is a service that Microsoft provides to help these manufacturers to distribute their drivers.
What you can do.
1. Check with the computer manufacturer for updated drivers for that device. This is your best source, since the computer manufacturer builds, tests, and sometimes develops their own, custom drivers to work with the hardware on their PCs.
2. Try to determine the name and manufacturer of the device using Device Manager and MSInfo32. Once this information is found, try to find that manufacturers website and look for the latest compatible drivers.
3. Check to see if there are any users forums on the PC manufacturers or device manufacturers websites. Ask there about any known issues with this particular hardware device or if the device is no longer supported.
4. If the drivers are found but are only available for previous versions of Windows, install the drivers using the Windows Compatibility Mode. HOW TO: Install a Hardware Device Driver using Compatibility Mode
Right now, we are in a unique situation since we are using an operating system that is still in the pre-release phase. Many hardware/software manufacturers will be ofrficially supporting their products for Windows 7 until after the General Availability date of October 22, 2009.
Hope this helps.
Thank You for using Windows 7

T450s -- Display, NGFF SSD, Smart Card Reader, and m.2 SSD slots

I'm looking to order a T450s and have a few questions about options when configuring the order:
1080 Display -- Does anyone know if the 1080 display (non-touch) is made by LG or AUO or someone else? There was extensive discussion about the T440s, and people got different brands and the AUO was the preferred brand.
16GB m.2 NGFF SSD -- If I remove this option, and want to add a 3rd party compatible NGFF SSD later, can I do this?
3rd m.2 SSD Slot -- The options are None, 3rd m.2 SSD slot, or Smart Card Reader. If I select the Smart Card Reader option, can I later remove the Smart Card Reader and use it as a 3rd m.2 SSD slot? Or, if I select 3rd m.2 SSD slot and later want to use it for a Smart Card Reader, can I buy a Smart Card Reader and plug it into the slot?

Lenovo uses different FHD diplays for the T450s: one by AU Optronics and the other by LG Display.
However, the T450s uses a different LG display than the T440s. The LG screen of the T450s ("
LP140WF3-SPD1") seems to be much better than the LG screen of the T440s.
If you remove the 16GB M.2 SSD option, you can add a M.2 SSD later.
If you have a device with two M.2 slots, you can't use a M.2 SSD and WWAN at the same time.
If you have a device with three M.2 slots, you can only use single-sided M.2 SSDs in the third M.2 slot.
Both the SmartCard reader and the third M.2 slot are attached to the mainboard via a flexible flat cable.
If you choose the SmartCard reader, the warranty might be lost if you want to use the third M.2 slot, because you have to replace some parts that aren't so-called CRUs (consumer replaceable units).

Blackberry Z10 and Smart Card Reader Battery Life

We have several users with new Z10s using Smart Card Reader 2. After activation with BAS10, users state the Smart Card Sled battery life has dramatically decreased from the old setup with 9930s on BAS5. One user states he can have it fully charged at work and it will be dead by the time he gets home.
I searched around a bit, and haven't found anyone else reporting this issue. Any ideas what might be causing this?

Hi my two Z10 don't have this issue, what OS version are you running? The newer version should have fixed the battery issue.

After 10.7.2.update cannot see SD card reader in usb drive. Used to appear on desktop and start iPhoto but now nothing happens. It is recognised by system profiler (usb hub), but cannot find it anywhere.

Zap the PRAM and Reset the SMC, then try again.

USB Smart Card reader

I want to interface with a USB smart card reader to make a cash card system. I'm not going to be writing any code that goes on the smart card itself, just code that runs on a PC. Is the Card SDK what I'm looking for or am I way off base? If it isn't, where should I be looking?

You can then use the javax.smartcardio package to communicate with a PC/SC smart card device. You should able to find examples online. You only need the JCDK if you plan to develop on card code.

Get serial number of ACS 38 CCID smart card reader to identify it.

I m working over native card , and for security i want to get the special feature of smart card reader (serial number or anything) to make it distinguish with other reader. I am using ACS 38 CCID reader.
what i did to find this-
1- in Winscard.h , there are a function with name - SCardGetAttribute() , when i am using this for getting serial number , it is showing error like- Error 0x00000032 :- the request is not supported. while it is giving serial number when i am using other reader - SCM Microsystems Inc.
2- when i go for registry ,
HKLM\SYSTEM\CURRENT CONTROL SET\SERVICES\A38CCID\ENUM . i found there a
string - usb\vid_072f&Pid_90cc\5&3873a573&0&2 (Device Instance Id) but for number of reader ,its similar. so here i am fail again.
Is there any way to get this or i need to consult with manufacture?
I already use javax.smartcardio.*; is there any function to get the detail of reader connected????

I'd bet my last Euro it's the second FRU you mentioned, 04W1637, because all FRUs, and all Lenovo MTMs and order numbers that I have ever seen consist of 7 digits or letters, this was so in the IBM days and has been the case ever since.

Smart Card Omnikey 3121 (USB) on MacPro MAC OS 10.4.7 won´t work

Hello,
I´m trying to use an USB OMNIKEY Smartcard 3121 on my MacPro for email encryption in a Citrix Session.
If a put the smartcard into the reader, the red light is flashing 1 sec only. The content from the smart card is not delivered into the Citrix Session. But the PC/SC Testprogram can connect to the reader.
Changing the rights of the whole content in directory /var/run/pcscd/ to 666 does not solve the problem.
Does anybody have an experience with this?
Thank you!

Wilkommen zu Apple Discussions!
I'd contact Omnikey and ask them if they have tested their key on 10.4.7. If they only have used a previous version of Mac OS X you may need a Mac which came with the older version of Mac OS X that they tested with or older. If you do have the older operating system as compatible with that computer, you may want to install a second hard drive on your machine with that older operating system.
Macs can't run an older operating system than they shipped with.
