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?

When you are just using the built-in Sierra setup, and you insert your smartcard, what happens when you type
security export-smartcard
at the terminal?
There doesn't seem to be any other way of telling if it actually reads your smartcard.  it does not show up in the keychain any more.

I tried the El Capitan version of Smart Card Services on Sierra with no success. The installer gave up immediately with an error saying the OS was wrong.

Hoping Sierra's new built-in Smart Card tokends might work without having to install anything extra, I had tried that first. That too did not work. I did not know I had a Smart Card reader connected at all.
