Using OpenSC in Evolution

This page will explain the steps required to use OpenSC crypto devices in Evolution.

Preparations

Make sure the NSS modutil tool is installed. If it is not available install it!

For example on Ubuntu 9.10 this can be done with the command:

sudo apt-get install libnss3-tools

Insert OpenSC into the certificate database

Now you have to insert a link to the PKCS lib into Evolutions certificate database with modutil.

The syntax of the command is:

modutil -add <name> -libfile <path_to_lib> -dbdir <evolution_directory>

For example:

modutil -add "OpenSC" -libfile /usr/lib/opensc-pkcs11.so -dbdir ~/.evolution
