in my country in Europe, everybody has a social security chip card. It
currently gets updated by adding a "government certificate" used for
electronic communication.
All my 2000+ students will get this card in the next weeks and a smartcard
reader named "Gemalto".

1) How can I read the certificate from the card and verify it against a
trusted institution using VB.NET ?

2) How can I add a certificate issued by my school?

thank you very much, herbert
 
Thank you, John.

I shall read the Java and C++ samples I found at http://labs.a-trust.at
and try to rewrite them in .NET

We're not in a hurry as the government's server side is not running stabile.

best regards, herbert
