RHEL 4, PC/SC support
Does RHEL 4 have any native support for PC/SC smartcard readers? I'm not interested in smartcard authentication, just access to usb PC/SC card readers via software applications.
Regards.

Hi Paul,
RHEL 4 does not include the PC/SC Lite packages, which provide PC/SC support on Linux. There are some el4 packages floating around the web, but those were not provided by Red Hat. RHEL has included the pcsc-lite package since version 5.
Also, please note that RHEL 4 is now really old and not supported by Red Hat any more. I would encourage you to consider installing/upgrading to a more recent version.
