Hi Bill,

Grab the PDF "CAC on a MAC" (Mar 2006) from
http://cisr.nps.edu/pub_techrep.html and flip to page 10.  Try running
steps a) thru e) and then see if that might resolve the issue.  I had a
very similar problem with Thunderbird and perhaps FireFox is suffering
the same issue?

Anyone else having a problem getting a CAC card to work with Firefox.

I am running 10.4.6 Mac OSX, firefox 1.5.0.3, SCRx31 USB Smart Card
Reader: Version:	5.18.

When I do the following to setup Firefox:

Click Manage Security Devices, then click Load.
Enter a name in the Module Name box (for example, "CAC SmartCard"),
     then type the  location of the file in the Module Filename box:

    /usr/libexec/SmartCardServices/pkcs11/pkcs11.bundle/Contents/
MacOS/pkcs11

Click OK.

Firefox thinks about it for a few seconds and then crashes.  Every
time I try to restart
FIrefox it just crashes.

I have successfully configured Firefox on numerous Mac's of identical
configurations,
but 2 of my machines just will not work.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
