How to Disable Smart Card Operations (Command Line)

You might need to disable smart card operations on a system if a smart card configuration error does not allow a user to log in with a smart card, or if a system no longer needs a smart card login.

  1. Become superuser.

  2. Bring the system to single-user mode.


    # shutdown -g180 -y
    
  3. Disable smart card operations.


    # smartcard -c disable
    
  4. Bring the system up to multiuser mode and return to the desktop environment.
