How to perform user login via SmartCard using .cer certificates

Hi All,

I have been trying to login to my Ubuntu (v 20.04) machine which is joined to AD server (Windows Server 2k16). And for log-in to the user account I am having a .CER certificate (certficate without private key) via Smartcard attached to the Ubuntu Machine. When I try this, it prompts for PIN but fails even when the correct PIN is provided.

I wanted to ask, if the process how I am implementing is recommended. Or if I am missing out something for the process mentioned above.

Please guide.

Thanks in advance,
Nishant S

Thank you for your post and I apologize for the delayed response!

When it comes to your scenario, are you using Azure Active Directory? Or is this just Active Directory? Additionally, are you able to share any documentation that you followed to set this up.


If you have any other questions, please let me know.
Thank you for your time and patience throughout this issue.
