The Smart Card Services install works great for me on Lion, but smart card login seems to be broken. Has anyone documented how to modify the /etc/authorization file to enable support for smart card login again? It even seems to be broken with the latest update of Snow Leopard.

I am not sure smart card login is still supported in Lion. See [1]: " What was changed ? The Smart Card Services deprecation was limited to the following components no longer shipping in OS X. o No Tokend modules ship with OS X Lion (10.7) Modules: /System/Library/Security/tokend/*.tokend o Authorization Mechanism reference missing Database: /etc/authorization Right: system.login.console Mechanism: builtin:smartcard-sniffer,privileged " Bye [1] http://smartcardservices.macosforge.org/post/apple-deprecates-smart-card-ser... --  Dr. Ludovic Rousseau
