You must configure Safeguard Authentication Services for Smart Cards to work with your vendor's PKCS#11 library drivers.
Safeguard Authentication Services for Smart Cards interfaces with the smart card and the smart card reader using the vendor’s PKCS#11 driver. This is a shared library implementing a standard interface supported by most card vendors for accessing the cryptographic functions of smart cards and tokens.
Note: Safeguard Authentication Services for Smart Cards is derived from the RSA Security Inc. PKCS#11 Cryptographic Token Interface (Cryptoki).
Safeguard Authentication Services for Smart Cards requires that you configure Safeguard Authentication Services with the location of your vendor's PKCS#11 driver. If the driver is not configured you will be unable to use some smart card functions and it displays an error similar to this:
vastool smartcard info card ERROR: no PKCS#11 library specified in vas.conf
To configure Safeguard Authentication Services you need to know the location of your vendor's PKCS#11 shared library on the file system. Consult your vendor documentation for this information.
Note: You can specify the location of the PKCS#11 using either the full path to the PKCS#11 shared library or a path relative to the appropriate pkcs11 library subdirectory under /opt/quest for your architecture. For example, /opt/quest/lib/pkcs11 on x86 Linux systems. See Configuring the PKCS#11 library for 32-bit and 64-bit versions.
The Gemalto 5.1 Drivers for Red HatLinux on x86 platforms are installed in /usr/local/lib/libxltCk.so.
