  • Method and apparatus for client authentication and application configuration via smart cards
    Patent number: 6438550
    Abstract: A data processing system for accessing a host computer. A smart card is detected at the data processing system, which in turn queries the smart card for an indication of a location of user information. A secure channel is established with the location of user information. User information is retrieved associated with the smart card from the location. A connection is established to the host computer with the user information. Key to this invention is the ability to use this infrastructure for authentication when a smart card cannot be used at the data processing system.
