We have a smartcard reader and smartcard that now allow us to login to
windows. IE. WindowsXP/Win2003.

Takes a lot of setup, and we are now using the inbuilt Microsoft
features, so no modified GINA's etc.


I have just tested using the SmartCard to connect to a Windows 2003 server using terminal services. It works !

I then tested the 2 group policy options that windows allows you to set
namely
   1) Force logoff on SmartCard removal
   2) Lock on SmartCard removal

Well thats all well and good, but I need to be in a postion where the
following happens.

1) Workstation is at DESKTOP login on TS server
2) User inserts Smartcard and enters PIN
3) This takes them either back to the session they last had opened OR
creates a new one
4) The user removes the SmartCard and the session DISCONNECTS (ie
allowing for smooth roaming)

At this stage I have not installed either PS3 or 4 or any version of the
Citrix client. This is my test environment and I was looking for some
pointers in the right direction
