You will need to specify what card reader you are using.

I have a PowerBook G4 17" w/1.5GB RAM/80GB HD and a Verizon Wireless
Broadband card that I use for Internet Access. That said, I would
like to be
able to access at the minimum webmail.nmci.navy.mil, and at the
most be able
to POP/IMAP my email with an appropriate email client. I have
successfully
setup the CAC Readers on PCs, but have been struggling to use a CAC
reader
on the Mac.
In OS X 10.4.x CAC card support is built in. If you install the
ActivCard software you will likely break that built-in support.
As a test, connect your card reader to your machine, insert your
card, and then launch Keychain Access. If you are already configured
then an extra item will appear in the upper left pane (Keychains),
mine is labeled "smart card #2", you may have to press a button
labeled "Show Keychains" which is located at the bottom left of the
window. At a minimum the keychain pane should list the following
keychains: "shortusername", X509Anchors, System, X509Certificates.
Also, it might be neccesary to follow the following instructions (may
have been fixed since the first release of OS X 10.4):
-- Federal Customers within DoD will need to add the
"X509Certificates" to the list
a) Launch Keychain Access
b) Select "Edit -> Keychain List"
c) Select "Show: Mac OS X (System)"
d) Check "Shared" checkbox next to
"X509Certificates" (/System/Library/Keychains)
e) X509Certificates will now appear in the Keychains
List and will be available for
Intermediates for the whole trust path
validation.
Also, try the archives for more info, search for messages by Shawn
Geddis since the release of Tiger for quickest results. I posted a
message yesterday with two of his messages attached.
