SafeNet eToken problem

Post by farcsa » Tue Nov 17, 2015 11:01 am

I have a SafeNet eToken 5100 type USB token. In the VPN Client selecting "Smart Card Authentication" and the inserted USB token, in the "Specify Certificate in Smart Card" window it appear the certificates and the private key, but the private key's name is empty! And when I select the private key (with empty name) and then I push the OK button, on the VPN connection properties window the OK button is grayed out, and I can't save the connection parameters.
I've tested it with keys 2048 and 1024 bit strength.

Is there anyone who uses the SafeNet eToken device with SoftEther VPN, or I am the only one?

Did you use 64bit version PKCS#11 driver on your PC?

No.
I tried to test with windows 7 x86 within a VMWare Workstation virtual machine.

Thank you. It's an idea, to test it on x64 platform!

The problem still exists. It is very woeful... No solution? This program is very outstanding, but due to this bug, we can not use (2-factor authentication is obligatory in our business). I hope, that the developer read this post too.

SoftEther supports only 1024bit key for security token.

Umm, I think it need edit source code for blank ID name.

I am also willing to see longer key sizes. That would make the smartcard usage much safer.
Are you also planning to add support for more smart cards/tokens? I have a yubikey neo and it is not in the list of cards that are compatible.

The problem, as described by topicstarter, is:
"OK button stays grayed after selecting smartcard, certificate and private key then I create new client connection with SmartCard authentication".

I use:
1024bit private key,
Aladdin eToken Pro Java 72K,
ETPKCS11.DLL,
windows7x64 professional,
softether-vpnclient-v4.22-9634-beta-2016.11.27-windows-x86_x64-intel.exe

Update.
If I use older Aladdin's eToken device
Particularly, Blue eTokenPRO 32 with CardOS/M4.01
then where is no reported problem.
But this device is outdated. As well as 1024bit keys.

I think dll doesn't support 64bit.
