Thisis an important point because current cards are single-threaded devices that often require the execution of multiple commands to complete a single function. Transactions allow multiple commands to be executed without interruption, ensuring that intermediate state information is not corrupted.

The resource manager API is a set of Windows functions that provide direct access to the resource manager's services. For an overview of the Windows functions provided by the API, see Smart Card Resource Manager API. In comparison, smart card service providers use COM interfaces.


Many of the Windows functions in the resource manager API have equivalents in the properties and methods of the smart card service providers' COM interfaces. And although most application developers will find COM easier to work with, some applications will still need to use the Windows functions to perform certain tasks. For example, applications that need to manipulate the list of readers or reader groups in the smart card database, and those that need direct control of a reader, must use the resource manager API. The services that provide these capabilities are available only in the Windows functions, not in the COM provided by the service providers.


IT administrators can set up their Windows domain to allow YubiKeys to be used as smart cards for login to connected Windows systems. Use the YubiKey Manager for Windows, which includes both a Graphical User Interface and a Command Line Tool to create PIN Unlock Keys (PUK)s on YubiKey devices for customers that require the use of a PUK.


The YubiKey Smart Card Minidriver enables users and administrators to use the native Windows interface for certificate enrollment, managing the YubiKey smart Card PIN, and smart card authentication on Windows.


NOTE: Use the YubiKey Manager to configure both the SmartCard (PIV) functionality of the YubiKey as well as all other YubiKey applications. With this application you only need to install one configuration software for your YubiKey. Note that the Security Key Series are FIDO devices only, if you want to use a YubiKey as a PIV Smartcard then refer to the other types of YubiKeys available.


Instead of the traditional login-password on Windows, users can connect with a smart card on their PCs. Evidian Authentication Manager is open and supports not only smart card authentication, but also RFID authentication, biometrics authentication, QR code authentication, OTP authentication...


Passwords are a weak point and a risk of intrusion when shared by several users. With Authentication Manager, strong authentication solves this issue by replacing passwords with smart cards or other devices. You can verify access attempts by employees to applications and workstations via a central audit database. You can therefore demonstrate compliance with your access policy.


Install and enable the Client Certificate Mapping Authentication. Follow the Client Certificate Mapping authentication using Active Directory instructions in the Microsoft document, Client Certificate Mapping Authentication.


By default the Director application runs with the Application Pool identity property. Smart card authentication requires delegation for which the Director application identity must have Trusted Computing Base (TCB) privileges on the service host.


Citrix recommends that you create a separate service account for Application Pool identity. Create the service account and assign TCB privileges as per the instructions in the Microsoft MSDN article, Protocol Transition with Constrained Delegation Technical Supplement.


You must create a service account for each Director server and load-balanced Virtual IPs (VIP) used to access a pool of Director servers. You must create service principal name (SPN) records to configure a delegation to the newly created service account.


To use the Firefox browser, install the PIV driver available at OpenSC 0.17.0. For installation and configuration instructions, see Installing OpenSC PKCS#11 Module in Firefox, Step by Step.For information on the usage of the smart card authentication feature in Director, see the Use Director with PIV based smart card authentication section in the Director article.


The idea is to predeploy driver before smart card is used to finish rest of the configuration ( when smart card is plugged into PC driver should be alredy installed, card will be recognized to proceed with configuration of smart card login on that PC).


InstallHinfSection is an entry-point function exported by Setupapi.dll that you can use to execute a section of an .inf file. InstallHinfSection can be invoked by calling the Rundll32.exe utility as described in the Remarks section.

It seems to happen when I try to use the miniremote to remote into some computers, not all remote clients. It seems to happen after a sudden disconnect or reboot of the remote machine. It doesn't matter where I do it, so it not computer/profile specific. And I can get co-workers to login to the same remote system w/o issue, so it seems to be my issue.


I can use dameware NT utilities to access all the tools for the respective computer but a soon as I try to use MiniRemote and try to login I get the error. I can use other remote desktop apps and windows RDP w/ smart card authentication w/o errors.


I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling the program on my pc, the service and drivers on the remote PC w/ Dameware software. I've tried manually adding and removing the conents %windir%\dwrcs folder on the remote system w/o issue.


We are having the same issue in our environment aside from the smart card being seen as JavaCard #2. We are thinking it has something to do with certificates since the majority of the users having issues were just recently issued a new smartcard token. We have not found a solution as of yet.


I was given this work around from Solarwinds and it is working for us maybe it will work for you as well ''If you remove the Smart Card before clicking Connect in the Remote Connect Window, then re-inserting the Smart Card when the Smart Card Remote Logon window appears"


Since Password Manager Pro serves as the vault for sensitive passwords, it is essential to have a strong authentication mechanism to grant access to the software. Password Manager Pro provides various authentication options and users can choose the ones that suit their environment better. Apart from Password Manager Pro's local authentication, there is provision for leveraging the authentication of external identity stores such as Active Directory / LDAP.


To bolster the security further, Password Manager Pro offers Smart Card Authentication, which makes the authentication stronger because, to get access to Password Manager Pro, the user must possess the smart card and should know the personal identification number (PIN) as well.


If you have a smart card authentication system in your environment, you can configure Password Manager Pro to authenticate users with their smart cards, bypassing other first factor authentication methods like AD, LDAP or Local Authentication.


When the user attempts to access Password Manager Pro web-interface, he would be allowed to proceed further only if he had already completed the smart card authentication in the machine by presenting the smart card and subsequently entering the PIN. Password Manager Pro's web-interface supplements smart card technology with SSL communication. So, the user is prompted to specify their X.509 certificate for getting access.
