In addition to these smart card targeted utilities other applications can be made 'smartcard aware' using: </p> <ul><li>OpenSC PKCS#11 module opensc-pkcs11 (or pkcs11-spy if one has to debug PKCS#11 issues). This is the preferred interface. </li><li>OpenSSL engine - engine_pkcs11 (together with a/the PKCS#11 module) and engine_opensc (deprecated). This can be used in scripts via the openssl utility or existing OpenSSL based applications can be extended to support dynamic openssl engines. </li></ul> </div> </div><div class="footer"><hr></hr><p><a href="index.html">Back to Index</a></p></div></body></html>
