Installing Belgian e-ID middleware and reader
There are (at least) three versions of the software on the Internet:
- From the official site (dutch)- version 4.0.2 - download the ubuntu(32bit) deb and install in the usual manner
The official FAQ on Firefox is farcical - in short, Tax-on-Web is not available in Firefox 4 and above because this browser does not support the SSL connection that the Belgian state acknowledges it is is using, because it is relatively insecure (this has also received press attention)!
And it's true, when you try to connect with Firefox 4+ you get an error:
Error code: ssl_error_renegotiation_not_allowedThere is a way of forcing Firefox to work with this insecure connection method - see here or here. Taxonweb further enforces its restrictions via a user-agent sniff, so you need a switching add-on - use any Microsoft user-agent - to be permitted to pay taxes!
Then all you need to do accept the certificate and permit access to card dialogues, an denter your PIN code.
Chrome - working
- Follow http://code.google.com/p/eid-mw/wiki/ChromeLinux
- Install a user-agent switcher from the Chrome store, and switch to Firefox (IE does not work)
