The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

How to create / embed a CSP into Basiccard, or any smartcard so i can log in a domain

Asked by andyr998 in SmartCards & Readers, Active Directory, Windows 2003 Server

Tags: smartcard, basiccard, csp, logon, smartcard logon

Hi,

I have a basicard (ZC3.9) smartcard, http://www.basiccard.com/.and an ACR38 card reader

I am very confused as to what i need to do to setup my Basiccard to allow for logon to a windows 2003/2008 domain. I think i could set up the domain certificate authentification side of things by following guides etc..i think you need a trust server that is not on the domain(PKI i think) and then you need to setup a root certificate in Active Directory or something like that, plenty more things as well.

Now for the card side of things!

So the card lets you write the embedded code in ZC-Basic which is almost the same as BASIC as you would guess!  Obvioulsy the ZC-Basic is then compliled into p-code etc before being downloaded to the card.

The terminal program (the program that runs on the PC)side, you can write in C++, VB6, .NET(VB, C#) etc.....as there is a .NET library and an OCX for all of this this.

Now it looks like i need a CSP(not even all that sure what a CSP is) installed onto the card and the maker of basiccard say they don't supply this. It may not even be possible for basicard to have a CSP on it, check out this ambiguous post to see what i mean,  

http://www.basiccard.com/wwwboard/messages/249.html  (did he mean it can't be done or just they don't do it)

So if it is possible to write a CSP for Basiccard and embed it onto it do you know how i would do this, any examples, could i write the CSP in ZC-Basic.

WOW, logging on with a smartcard that windows doesn't by default support is VERY invloved, any info at all would be helpful i am sure.

I a pretty sure the missing thing is this CSP code on the card what i am missing in this whole thing.. But really am  still pretty lost even after tons of searching.

Oh i should say that Basiccard are not by default supported by windows server.

Thanks.
