I have been trying to get this smart card thing to work with the remote VPN remote access. The card has a token which contains a security certificate, the idea is to allow a more secure user authentication for VPN through the Internet to the corporate network.
There are a couple of software to be installed, other the smart card driver, hmmm...should be plug and play, the CIP software, which reads the cert in the token card and also the Cisco VPN software. Actually, I was just following the guides, and I'm not supposed to fail the login more than 10x, else the card has to be reset, and this cost money, only the vendor who sold us the card can do it.
I brought all the software CDs, smart card reader and smart card home to install and test, it finally works! Funny, it didn't work on my office's notebook.
