Author: Andreas Jellinghaus putty-0.56-smartcard.patch.gz Patch for putty itself (windows ssh program). pageant-0.56-smartcard.patch.gz Patch for pageant (putty/windows version of the ssh agent). The patch currently uses the opensc pkcs11 library, so this will only work with opensc installed. Pageant will attempt to load the pkcs11 library if tell it to get a key from the included smartcard_key_file.ppk. This can be extended to load a specific key or a different library without a great deal of effort, but currently it just loads the first key from the first card that the opensc pkcs11 library finds. For feedback please contact: Kevin Stefanik A second efford to use smart cards with putty was donated by Peter Koch: PuTTYcard-0.58-V1.2.zip A patched putty/pageant version so it can load a library with key/crypto functions, e.g. to use the key of a smart card.
