Welcome to virtualsmartcard. The purpose of virtualsmartcard is to emulate a
|
|
smart card and make it accessible through PCSC. Currently the virtual smart
|
|
card supports almost all commands of ISO-7816 including secure messaging.
|
|
Besides a plain ISO-7816 smart card it is also possible to emulate a German
|
|
ePass (only basic access control) and a rudimentary Cryptoflex smart card. The
|
|
virtual smart card can be accessed through the virtual smart card reader which
|
|
is a driver for pcscd of PCSC-Lite.
|
|
|
|
By default the virtual smart card communicates with the virtual smart card
|
|
reader through a socket on localhost port 35963. The file utils.py was taken
|
|
from Henryk Plötz's cyberflex-shell.

Running virtualsmartcard
|
|
------------------------
|
|
|
|
First you need to make sure that pcscd loads the virtual smart card driver. You
|
|
might run ``update-reader.conf`` to update pcscd's configuration file. Then
|
|
``pcscd -f -d`` should say something like
|
|
readerfactory.c:1024:RFInitializeReader() Attempting startup of Virtual PCD 00 00 using /usr/lib/pcsc/drivers/serial/libvpcd.so
|
|
|
|
Now you can run ``vicc`` which connects to the virtual reader. The
|
|
command ``vicc --help`` gives an overview about the command line
|
|
options.
|
|
|
|
You should now be able to access the virtual smart card through the system's
|
|
PC/SC API. You can use the opensc-explorer or pcsc_scan to test that.
