To use HID Crescendo smart cards, ensure that the correct drivers are installed

on both the server that issues the certificates and the client computers. To use

crescendo c200 cards, perform the following two steps:

A. Install the Microsoft Base Smart Card Crypto Provider available at

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/909520

B. Install the HID Crescendo mini-driver performing a search for ‘HID Crescendo’ at

http://catalog.update.microsoft.com

For Crescendo C700, install the SafeSign middleware available from HID at

http://www.hidglobal.com/crescendo

.

By default, the SmartCardLogon and SmartCard User templates allow the user to select the CSP. It is

possible to create your own template by duplicating one of the existing templates (for example, duplicate the

Smart Card User template and then change its name and settings to use a specific CSP for HID Crescendo

cards).
