ssh & smartcard

Hi

i'm looking to use openssh (on multiple unix or windows) with smartcard,
mainly with activcard one (which are rebranded cyberflex/javacard, i
believe)

i've found some links

[url]http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/~checkout~/src/usr.bin/ssh/README.smartcard?rev=1.8.6.1&content-type=text/plain[/url]
=> maybe usable on openbsd, sectok is here
[url]http://www.citi.umich.edu/projects/smartcard/sectok.html[/url]
=> but not common on linux, it seems
[url]http://www.opensc-project.org/scb/[/url]
=> not compatible with my type of smartcard ...

so it doesn't seem operational in my setup (win/mac/linux/bsd clients to
unix servers locally or remotely).

has someone some hints on this ?


thanks a lot
Regards

Julien

other notes:
* openbsd seems to support local auth with activcard:

* on linux, found

Hmm. If the Smartcard system is simply built into the basic login program,
won't OpenSSH simply fall through to it after the SSH key fails? Or do you
want to somehow combine SSH key access and smartcard?

more with ssh key or the likes for remote auth
through login for local auth.
