OpenCT also has a primitive mechanism to export smart card readers to remote machines via TCP/IP. -This requires pcsc-lite (available on SlackBuilds.org). +This requires pcsc-lite. -For serial and pcmcia readers only, for using it as a PC/SC ifdhandler, -you have to edit file reader-openct.conf in /etc/reader.conf.d/, to -comment lines in other file(s) and run "/usr/sbin/update-reader.conf". - -Compiling with "APIDOC=1 ./openct.SlackBuild" produces API .pdf -documentation (mainly intended for developers). - -Compiling with "HALD=1 ./openct.SlackBuild" enable smart-card reader -detection using hal daemon's .fdi files.
