After connect to a remote computer via RDP, I'm not able to see the
smart card which is plugged into the remote machine but, if l enable
smart-cards in local devices dialog, I can see the one that is plugged
in my local computer.

Is there any configuration that can be done to get access to the
remote smart-card from the RDP session?.

Regards.

Ilde.
 
Re: Smartcard is not visible via RDP connection

The smart card plugged into a reader on the remote system doesn't really
belong to you to access. Who is going to give the PIN code? Does it belong
to someone who is logged in?

What you are asking sounds kind of odd to me! Maybe I am confused about
which computer is remote.

The device is an USB smart card, not a smart card inserted in a card
reader. This smart card is not for authentification but for licensing
purposes.
