I use an online banking software which uses smart-cards to establish a VPN session to the bank server.
I want to be able to control it over RDP.
The smart card used is actually a multi-purpose USB token (also a flash drive). The software which initiates the VPN session looks for the actual USB to be plugged. This means that smart card redirection is not enough and I need full USB over IP redirector which is not a problem by itself.
I installed the USB redirector and when the token is inserted on the client machine it appears exactly as if it were inserted locally into the remote machine.
However, when using RDP, the remote computer does not see the smart cards inserted "locally", only those redirected.
Even if I disable "Redirect smart card" checkbox in the RDP properties, it still sees the redirected smart card reader, only with no smart cards inserted.
When I use RAdmin or Teamviewer or any other proprietary protocol, everything works fine. It's only RDP which does not work. However, for a number of reasons I need to use RDP.
So the question is: how do I completely disable smart card redirection on server side in XP?
