See more PKCS11 Examples

Demonstrates how to change the PIN for the currently logged on user. (The currently logged on user can be the Security Officer, the Normal User, or Context Specific.) Lua

-- This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
-- See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

-- Note: Chilkat's PKCS11 implementation runs on Windows, Linux, Mac OS X, and other supported operating systems.

local pkcs11 = chilkat.Pkcs11.new()

-- See PKCS11 Find Driver Library Path for information about how to find the
-- PKCS11 driver file (if not explicitly known) for the plugged-in token or smart card in reader.

-- Make it an authenticated session by calling Login.
-- The smart card PIN is passed to the Login method.
-- The user type can be one of three choices:
-- 0 - Security Officer
-- 1 - Normal User
-- 2 - Context Specific.
