Aladdin eToken and Windows 7
Check comments below for a solution to this issue! Thanks to Daniel Verbruggen!
While testing the Aladdin eToken (USB form Factor Smart Card) with PKIClient 5.0 on windows 7, I discovered that the certificates are no longer published into the “Personal Certificate Store”.
Which makes the eToken quite useless for now on Windows 7. I can however logon to the Windows 7 system using the eToken. But for all other purposes like VPN, website authentication etc it cannot be used since Windows 7 does not offer you to pick an certificate to authenticate with.
The Smart Card device forwarding still works, over RDP and also within XP Mode on Windows 7.
I dropped Aladdin an email and asked them for timelines and Windows 7 support, but until now, nothing but silence. I will update this post when I know more. In the meanwhile if you’ve got a workaround… please drop a comment.
