Installing the certificates by running a Fixlet®

Use a Fixlet® to install the certificates that are required by the device driver for the IBM® virtual smart card reader.

About this task

You can install the certificates together with the driver by running a Fixlet®. However, if the results of the BigFix® Remote Control - Virtual Smart Card Reader Driver Status analysis show that the device driver is installed on your computer, but there are no certificates, you can install the certificates by running a Fixlet®. To install the certificates, complete the following steps:

Procedure

  1. In the Remote Control site, click the Deployment node.
  2. Select the Install BigFix® Remote Control Certificates for the Virtual Smart Card Reader Driver version 9.1.4.0500 task.
  3. Review the information in the Description tab.
  4. Follow the instructions in the Actions field to install the driver.

Results

The certificates that are required for smart card authentication are installed. For more information about the BigFix® Remote Control - Virtual Smart Card Reader Driver Status analysis, see Determining whether smart card support is enabled.
Note: If an error is reported when you run the Fixlet®, use the VSCCertsInstall.log file in the target installation directory for debugging purposes.
