4 Sun Ray, Smart Cards, and Citrix • May 2004
Sun Ray Requirements
Configuring your Sun Ray Server to allow smart card support for Citrix sessions
requires the following steps:
1. Ensure that you are running a current version of Solaris that supports Sun Ray
Server Software 2.0.
2. Apply the latest Solaris Cluster Patch.
3. Apply the latest Sun Ray Server Patch 114880.
The current version as of this document is 114880-04
4. Ensure that smart card middleware is installed on the Citrix Server
5. Install the Sun Ray PC/SC Bypass package.
Patch 114880-04 or later must be installed prior to installation
6. Configure/test Citrix ICA Client for Solaris/SPARC.
The first four steps are either general Solaris administration tasks or are beyond the
scope of this document, such as installing third-party middleware on the Citrix
Server. The steps that deal with installing Sun Ray PC/SC Bypass and configuring
and testing the ICA client are covered in detail below.
Smart Card Requirements
Microsoft Windows natively supports a limited number of smart cards. It is
important to have the correct drivers for the smart cards to be used in this
environment. Support for various smart cards varies by smart card client software
(often referred to as middleware) installed on the Citrix Server. For example, the U.S.
Department of Defense Common Access Card is not natively supported by Windows
and requires that middleware be installed on the Citrix Server (i.e. ActivCard for
CAC, Netsign CAC, Schlumberger CACtus, etc.).
