[SmartcardServices-Users] Cannot use my Yubikey Neo

Mon Mar 2 18:07:01 PST 2015

I also can confirm that using the OS X Forge PIV tokend it does show the
NEO PIV applet as a keychain. I tried in CCID mode and CCID with other
modes enabled, doesn't make a difference.

There is an open source OpenSC tokend project -
https://github.com/OpenSC/OpenSC.tokend
I have a NEO-n and when in CCID mode the OpenSC tokend will show it as the
PIV_II keychain. The NEO PIV applet doesn't even need to contain
certificates, it will show the keychain for the container, just empty. So
there is nothing you need to do to the NEO out of the box besides enable
CCID mode to make it show up as a keychain using the OpenSC tokend.

I know that doesn’t help resolve the issue with leveraging the PIV.tokend
with the NEO PIV applet, but might help narrow down the problem space.
