SYNOPSIS
pcscd
[options]

-c, --configfile
Specifies the file file as an alternate location for
/etc/reader.conf.
-f, --foreground
Runs pcscd in the foreground and sends log messages to stderr instead of
syslog(3).

DESCRIPTION
pcscd is the daemon program for pcsc-lite and the MuscleCard framework. It is
a resource manager that coordinates communications with smart card readers
and smart cards and cryptographic tokens that are connected to the system.
pcscd is normally started at boot time from
/etc/init.d/pcscd.
It allows applications to access smart cards and readers without knowing
details of the card or reader.
pcscd coordinates the loading of drivers for card readers.
The purpose of pcsc-lite is to provide a cross compatible API (called
winscard) for migrating Windows based PC/SC applications to Unix.
At startup, pcscd loads the smart card reader drivers specified in the
/etc/reader.conf
file (or specified using
--config file).
SERIAL SMART CARD READER DRIVERS
Smart card reader drivers are placed in the
/usr/lib/pcsc/drivers
directory. Each driver is simply an
.so
file. pcscd locates the driver using the
/etc/reader.conf
file. See the
reader.conf(5)
manual page for more information.
Drivers are available at http://www.musclecard.com/drivers.html.
USB SMART CARD READER DRIVERS
USB smart card reader drivers are located in
/usr/lib/pcsc/drivers
directory as a bundle. You shall not add a USB driver in
/etc/reader.conf
file.
FILES
/etc/reader.conf
: Reader configuration file
/etc/init.d/pcscd
: pcscd startup script
/var/run/pcscd.pid
: process id of the running pcscd
