Problems with OS X Snow Leopard

[Marcus Andersson-9]

Hi,

I encounter some problems when running handler_test on OS X 10.6.1 with
a Gemplus reader. This is the output I get:

tests-computer:Host test$ sudo ./handler_test -l
/usr/libexec/SmartCardServices/drivers/ifd-ccid.bundle/Contents/MacOS/libccid.dylib
-A -1 -d usb:08e6/3437
Using driver:
/usr/libexec/SmartCardServices/drivers/ifd-ccid.bundle/Contents/MacOS/libccid.dylib

Are you sure a CCID reader is connected?
and that you have read/write permission on the device?
tests-computer:Host test$


Here is a link to the debug output from pcscd:
http://kornet1.se/pcscd.log. I have noticed that the system starts a new
pcscd process whenever I connect the reader, and it will interfere with
my debug pcscd. Is it possible to prevent the system from starting
pcscd? The log above is captured when I start pcscd with the reader
already connected.


tests-computer:~ test$ sudo /usr/sbin/pcscd --version

This is a feature of OS X. Securityd is responsible for this behavior.

Rename /usr/sbin/pcscd to  /usr/sbin/pcscd.x and run that manually.  
After you're done, rename it back to pcscd

I am trying to learn smard card development on OS X. I selected the
tests because I am familiar with them from Linux and right now it is the
only PCSC software that I have successfully built on OS X. To me it
looks like pscsd tries to connect the Gemplus, but after a number of
attempts it gives up.

I am trying to compile MacAPDU and CocoaCard from muscleapps svn as
well, but right now I have lots of build errors to sort out. I hope it
is just missing header files.

I figured if I can get the handler tests to work, I have a good baseline
for further experimentation.

Best regards,
Marcus Andersson
