:License:

GPL version 3
|
|

- Linux (Debian, Ubuntu, OpenMoko)

@PACKAGE_NAME@ emulates a smart card and makes it accessible through PC/SC.
|
|
Currently the @PACKAGE_NAME@ supports the following types of smart cards:
|
|
|
|
- Generic ISO-7816 smart card including secure messaging
|
|
- German electronic identity card (nPA) with complete support for |EAC| (|PACE|, |TA|, |CA|)
|
|
- German electronic passport (ePass) with complete support for |BAC|
|
|
- Cryptoflex smart card (incomplete)
|
|
|
|
The |vpcd| is a smart card driver for PCSC-Lite_. It allows
|
|
smart card applications to access the |vpicc| through the PC/SC API. By
|
|
default |vpcd| opens slots for communication with multiple |vpicc|'s on
|
|
localhost from port 35963 to port 35972. But the |vpicc| does not need to run
|
|
on the same machine as the |vpcd|, they can connect over the internet for
|
|
example.
|
|
|
|
Although the @PACKAGE_NAME@ is a software emulator, you can use
|
|
:ref:`pcsc-relay` to make it accessible to an external contact-less smart card
|
|
reader.
|
|
|
|
The file :file:`utils.py` was taken from Henryk Plötz's cyberflex-shell_.

Depending on your usage of the |vpicc| you might or might not need
|
|
the following:
|
|
|
|
- Python_
|
|
- pyscard_
|
|
- PyCrypto_
|
|
- PBKDF2_
|
|
- PIP_
|
|
- OpenPACE_ (nPA emulation)
|
|
|
|
The |vpcd| depends on PCSC-Lite_.

Running the @PACKAGE_NAME@
|
|
********************************************************************************
|
|
|
|
The configuration file from |vpcd| is usually placed into
|
|
:file:`/etc/reader.conf.d/`. The PC/SC daemon should read it and load the
|
|
|vpcd| on startup. In debug mode :command:`pcscd -f -d` should say something
|
|
like "Attempting startup of Virtual PCD". For older versions of PCSC-Lite you
|
|
need to run :command:`update-reader.conf` to update :command:`pcscd`'s main
|
|
configuration file.
|
|
|
|
By default, |vpcd| opens a socket for |vpicc| and waits for incoming
|
|
connections. The port to open should be specified in ``CHANNELID`` and
|
|
``DEVICENAME``:
|
|
|
|
.. literalinclude:: vpcd_example.conf
|
|
:emphasize-lines: 2,4
|
|
|
|
If the first part of the ``DEVICENAME`` is different from ``/dev/null``, |vpcd|
|
|
will use this string as a hostname to connect to a waiting |vpicc|. |vpicc|
|
|
needs to be started with the ``--reversed`` flag in this case.
|
|
|
|
The command :command:`vicc --help` gives an overview about the command line
|
|
options of |vpicc|.
|
|
|
|
.. program-output:: vicc --help
|
|
|
|
When |vpcd| and |vpicc| are connected you should be able to access the card
|
|
through the PC/SC API via :command:`pcscd`. You can use the
|
|
:command:`opensc-explorer` or :command:`pcsc_scan` for testing. In
|
|
@PACKAGE_NAME@'s root directory we also provide scripts for testing with
|
|
:ref:`libnpa` and PCSC-Lite's smart card reader driver tester.
|

================================================================================
|
|
Accessing the @PACKAGE_NAME@ from Windows applications
|
|
================================================================================
|
|
|
|
Running |vpcd| under Windows is currently not supported, because it implements
|
|
a smart card driver specific for PCSC-Lite (:command:`pcscd`). This means, that
|
|
although you can run |vpicc| under Windows (for example in relay mode), it
|
|
can't be accessed by Windows' smart card applications.
|
|
|
|
However, there are several more or less complicated paths you can go:
|
|
|
|
- Run |vpcd|/:command:`pcscd` in Linux and use :ref:`pcsc-relay` to forward the
|
|
|vpicc| via NFC to a contactless reader which is attached to the Windows
|
|
machine. This has been tested tested with a ACR122U (touchatag).
|
|
- Run your windows machine as virtual machine in a Linux host. Then run
|
|
|vpcd|/:command:`pcscd` in the Linux host and grab the |vpicc| with the
|
|
:ref:`ccid-emulator`. Now forward the emulated USB device to the Windows VM.
|
|
This is easy, but the :ref:`ccid-emulator` is not tested very well under
|
|
Windows.
|
|
- Use the combination above (|vpcd|/:ref:`ccid-emulator` under Linux) on a
|
|
device, that you can put in USB client mode. Then use a USB connector to
|
|
physically connect the Linux machine in client mode to the Windows machine.
|
|
- Port the |vpcd| from PCSC-Lite to Windows' PC/SC service. Then, |vpcd| runs
|
|
natively under Windows. Although |vpcd| is relatively simple and should be
|
|
POSIX compliant, this could be a lot of work.
|
|
- Run |vpcd|/:command:`pcscd` under Cygwin on the Windows machine. This has
|
|
been reported to work, but it is unclear whether you can use PCSC-Lite as
|
|
PC/SC provider for a native Windows application.
