Description of problem:
Gnome Control Center only allows for certificates to be used if they are on a file system and not a smart card.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
RHEL 7&8
Actual results:
You can only select certificates on a file system.
Expected results:
Read the certificates off of the smart card.
Business Impact:
Customers need a consistent experience across our tools. nm-connection-editor allows the use of smart cards to host certificates used in the authentication of wired/wireless connections to the network when using EAP-TLS.
With the increasing use of smart card certificates due to security concerns, our customers are looking to use them these items more in our environment. The use of smart cards increase the security of network connections as the certificates can be separate from the system when it is not in use.
