Hi all,Look at OpenSC documentation site ; there an explanation about how to get working of OpenSSL with OpenSC
I have been having difficulty in finding a tutorial explaining how to use the openssl application with smartcards, and I hope that someone could help me with the following:
What I am basically trying to do is use a smartcard for logging into my Linux machine. I have openssl ver 0.9.7a installed, and I have implemented a pkcs#11 interface to the smartcard. I also installed the OpenSC libraries, but I'm not sure how to use it with openssl and with my pkcs#11 module.
I would be grateful if someone could guide me on how to configure all those tools, and especially how to obtain or generate a certificate/key-pair to use in the login process to the computer.
Thanks, Amira.

http://www.opensc.org/files/doc/opensc.html#opensc.using.openssl - here link for this section of help;
Idea is that in OpenSSL all operations with private key or even more could be delegated throw functional pointers to something that called ENGINE;
For private key operations it will reverted to replacing method structure with one provided by Engine implmentation ; it will implement what could be performed by Engine (not all operations that possible with raw private key are possible with key located at some hardware like smart card)
OpenSC is project that updates quite frequently therefore look at they mail forum , also there could be found most of answers.
