pcscd autostart causes two pcscd daemons

Description

We can't actually really have it, as for 'normal' ccid readers user would get two concurrent pcscd daemons when he inserts the reader and the result is nothing really works.

  • Summary changed from pcscd autostart to pcscd autostart causes two pcscd daemons

Pcscd autostart is not enabled by default when we run Installer (click on Personalize to visualize it). So it is not really a problem.

A possible way to solve this, is to modify /etc/mach_init.d/securityd.plist to launch securityd with a -s off option when we install pcscd_autostart. By this, securityd will NOT launch a second pcscd process when a CCID reader is connected.

This seems like a good option.

  • Status changed from new to closed
  • Resolution set to fixed

Fixed in Changeset 41: during the installation of pcscd_autostart, a "sc-securityd.py inactive" is done.
