[Pcsclite-muscle] Authenticate on OSX with NFC

[Martin Paljak]

Hello,

As ACS is known to have different readers with same name and usbid but
varying firmware, YMMV.
On OSX 10.9 with autoconf/automake/libtool/pkg-config from homebrew:

git clone https://code.google.com/p/libnfc/
cd libnfc
autoreconf -iv
./configure --with-drivers=acr122_pcsc
make

And issuing ./utils/nfc-list

Gives me:

$ ./utils/nfc-list
/Users/martin/projects/nfc/libnfc/utils/.libs/nfc-list uses libnfc
libnfc-1.7.1-12-gb978c45
NFC device: ACS ACR 38U-CCID 00 00 / ACR122U102 opened

Or with a mifare 1k tag:
$ ./utils/nfc-list
/Users/martin/projects/nfc/libnfc/utils/.libs/nfc-list uses libnfc
libnfc-1.7.1-12-gb978c45
NFC device: ACS ACR 38U-CCID 00 00 / ACR122U102 opened
1 ISO14443A passive target(s) found:
ISO/IEC 14443A (106 kbps) target:
    ATQA (SENS_RES): 00  04
       UID (NFCID1): e2  68  c9  cd
      SAK (SEL_RES): 08


This much about libnfc.

I would not bet on getting the login working with documentation based
on osx 10.4. It *might* still work though, by some means. But don't
expect something like PAM.
