Testing the PKCS#11 library for Safeguard Authentication Services for Smart Cards compatibility (optional)

The vastool utility provides an option to test whether a PKCS#11 library is suitable for use with Safeguard Authentication Services for Smart Cards.

To test the PKCS #11 library

  1. Run the following command:
    vastool smartcard -l <library> test library

    where <library> is the path to the PKCS#11 library you want to test.

    For example, to test the Gemalto PKCS#11 drivers on a Red Hat x86 platform, run the following command:

    vastool smartcard -l \
    /usr/local/lib/libxltCk.so test library

    This displays the following output if the driver is correctly installed:

    Testing PKCS#11 library '/usr/local/lib/libxltCk.so':
    Checking PKCS#11 library may be dynamically loaded ... ok
    Checking PKCS#11 library contains necessary symbols ... ok
    Checking PKCS#11 function list can be obtained ... ok
    Checking PKCS#11 library version is compatible ... ok
    Checking PKCS#11 library can be initialized ... ok
    Checking PKCS#11 library can be finalized ... ok

Configuring the vendor's PKCS#11 library using VASTOOL

To configure the location of the PKCS#11 library using vastool

  1. Log in and open a root shell.
  2. Run the following command.
    vastool smartcard configure pkcs11 lib <library>

    where <library> is the path to the PKCS#11 library.

    For example:

    • To configure the CoolKey PKCS#11 library, run the following command:
      vastool smartcard configure pkcs11 lib /usr/lib/pkcs11/libcoolkeypk11.so
    • To configure the Gemalto 64-bit PKCS#11 library, run the following command:
      vastool smartcard configure pkcs11 lib /usr/local/lib64/libxltCk.so
    • To configure the ActivClient PKCS#11 library, run the following command:
      vastool smartcard configure pkcs11 lib /usr/local/ActivIdentity/ActivClient/lib/libacpkcs211.so

Note: You can configure the PKCS#11 Library using this procedure or by editing the vas.conf file.

Configuring the vendor's PKCS#11 library by editing the configuration file

You can manually configure the location of the vendor's PKCS#11 library by editing the setting in the /etc/opt/quest/vas.conf file.

To configure the PKCS#11 library by editing the vas.conf file

  1. Log in and open a root shell.
  2. Open the file /etc/opt/quest/vas/vas.conf in the editor of your choice.
  3. Add the section:
    [pkcs11]
    pkcs11-lib = <library>

    where <library> is the path to the vendor's PKCS#11 library.

Configuring the PKCS#11 library for 32-bit and 64-bit versions

When you install Safeguard Authentication Services for Smart Cards on a 64-bit platform, you install both 64-bit and 32-bit versions of the libraries and Safeguard Authentication Services PAM modules. If you want to use both architectures (for example to allow smart card login using a 32-bit application), you need both 32-bit and 64-bit PKCS#11 libraries.

To install both these libraries, follow the appropriate steps for your platform.
