Hi Karl ,

We can't reproduce the same issue under WinXP, but we can share some
information with you:

If you write Gina component, SCardEstablishContext() will fail in the GINA
since the Smart card service has not been started when winlogon shows the
SAS.

If you want to call SCardEstablishContext from other session(such as
terminal session)
 SCardEstablishContext is the one returning SCARD_E_NO_SERVICE. It detects
the session change and will return the error if it is not the session that
the application is running under.

Otherwise it will work succussfully, do you try to restart the smart card
service?

Thanks

Jian Shen
