While on Windows operating systems cryptographic cards are automatically detected and appear in the Windows repository when introduced, this is not the case on UNIX systems, which is why the Mozilla Firefox cryptographic module must be configured to detect the cards and load them into its repository. To run the 'ACEPTA' applet, check if the Java plugin is installed and enabled in the browser.
4.1. Siemens cryptographic card
To use a siemens cryptographic card follow the steps below:
4.1.1. Install the card reader drivers:
- Download drivers at ACCV: http://www.accv.es/fileadmin/Archivos/software/scmccid_linux_32bit_driver_V5.0.21.tar.gz
- Install modules pcscd, libpcsclite1: sudo apt-get -y install pcscd libpcsclite1 libccid
- Extract the tar.gz file: tar -xzvf <ruta_al_fichero>/scmccid_linux_32bit_driver_V5.0.21.tar.gz
- Switch to the directory created: cd <ruta_al_fichero>/scmccid_5.0.21_linux_rel/
- Execute install.sh to install them: sudo sh ./install.sh sudo /etc/init.d/pcscd restart.
4.1.2. Install the siemens cryptographic card drivers:
- Download the drivers at ACCV:
http://www.accv.es/fileadmin/Archivos/software/CardOS_API_V3_2_41_Linux2_6_22_glibc2_6_1_pcsc1_ 5_1.tar.gz
- Extract the .tar.gz into the root directory: cd /sudo tar -xzvf <ruta_al_fichero>/CardOS_API_V3_2_41_Linux2_6_22_glibc2_6_1_pcsc1_5_1.tar.gz
- Execute: sudo ldconfig
4.1.3. Dependencies of the libsiecap11.so library:
Solve the dependencies of the libsiecap11.so library. According to information from the ACCV, the following dynamic links need to be created:
- sudo ln -s /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libxcb.so.1 /usr/lib/libxcb-xlib.so.0
- sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libXaw.so.7 /usr/lib/libXaw8.so.8
4.1.4. Register the cryptographic module in Mozilla Firefox:
- Access to Mozilla's Edit > Preferences... of Mozilla.
- Select the Advanced menu. In this menu, select the tab 'Encryption' and click on the button 'Devices'.
- Click on the 'Load' button and, in the opening window, enter the following data: Module name: "ACCV Siemens PKCS#11".
Click on "Accept" and confirm the installation. Firefox will notify the module has been installed.
