I'm not a smartcard user (somehow the concept hasn't been able to convince me ... yet), but what you write really sounds rather strange. Essentially you're saying: no backup of a private key generated on/via a smartcard cannot be exported. Because if it could be exported, importing the key(s) in question just works. However, and I'm saying this quite frankly, if that is true (gurus may jump in any time :-), that really should one prevent from using smartcards at all. There just has to be a backup option in any given system, or else it's plain Russian roulette for its user(s). -- left blank, right bald
