Your e-email was forwarded to me.

What do you mean 'passthru'?

Sun has a Solaris and Sun Ray platform-specific port of MUSCLE's open  
source PC/SC-lite project.
We currently don't have a Linux port of PC/SC-lite, which implies that  
Sun doesn't offer
PC/SC-lite for Linux-hosted Sun Ray servers.

PC/SC-lite for Solaris can be found on http://Sun.COM by searching for  
the term pcsclite
You can build your own version of PC/SC-lite from open source code  
that runs on Linux,
but that code won't work with the smart card readers built into Sun  
Rays.

Hope this helps.

Thanks,
Paul
