What do you want to do with this smartcard?

If you want to use the smartcard to store SSH keys, you can read
/usr/src/usr.bin/ssh/README.smartcard for more information on setting
this up.

If you want to use the smartcard to do kerberos authentication, look
at 
  http://www.citi.umich.edu/projects/smartcard/kerberos-sc.html

Sooner or later my work on getting this to work with OpenBSD 3.1 /
Heimdal 0.4e should also be up on this page.

Beware that both of the above solutions only work for a limited set of
smartcards.

As far as just using the smartcard to authenticate directly to the
system (via login), I am not aware of any work in this area.

HTH,
