[SmartcardServices-Users] MacOS Sierra version

I typed "security export-smartcard" in the terminal.  Indeed, it knows the
Smart Card is there and correctly displayed the certificates, private keys,
and identities on the card.  I'm using a SCR3500 reader on a new MacBook
Pro in this case.  I get the same result with SCR3311 on an iMac too.

Something is still amiss, as I can't get Pulse Secure to connect to our
protected network via VPN.  In El Capitan, installing Smart Card Services
(or Centrify) was a prerequisite to getting Pulse Secure working.

I wouldn't know where to begin in manually extracting the relevant pieces
from the OS 10.11 installer and putting them on my machine.  Is there a
description of what to do somewhere?
