So does that mean SmartCard authentication is no longer possible in
Fedora, or is there another method I'm missing?  I know pam_pkcs11
isn't ideal, but if you're required to use smartcards I believe it is
needed.

authconfig has configuration settings for SmartCard authentication but
they're grayed out unless the pam_pkcs11 module is installed.
