Thanks for getting in touch. After some experiments and I made it work. The
most difficult part was to get scdaemon logging properly to a file, so that
I can determine if it is able to detect any readers and the correct reader
name.

Using absolute paths did not work for me (I was tracing the log file access
using Process Monitor) and I ended up using relative path with forward
slashes.

After few more configuration tweaks, it worked. Interestingly enough, 'scd
getinfo reader_list' returns nothing even though everything works for me
now.

Regards,

Ondrej
