[Thinlinc-technical] using USB cardreader browser plugins ?

hi TL-adicts,

has someone of you already found a strategy/method to allow users to work
with locally-connected (USB) card readers that are required to authenticate
on certain websites (like government, banks, etc) ?

To be exact : I do not mean authenticating to ThinLinc using smartcards.

We have certain banks (and government sites) that use card-readers to
authenticate, connected via USB to the local computer, and driven by a
locally installed device-driver, together with a USB-cardreader
browser-plugin.

Any possibility to get this at work via a TL-session, where the browser
will be running on an agent-server ? Installing such a browser-plugin on
this agent-server will be no issue, but getting it able to read the USB of
the local workstation sounds unrealistic, no ?

brgds
