- Thread-topic: [Fed-Talk] CAC Setup on Intel MACs
This paper keeps getting cited, but I think the step that tells users to
copy their certs to the keychain should not be recommended.
Is there some application that needs this? Why is this in the paper? The
section in question is included below.

Copy new Certificates from CAC to Login Keychain:
You must copy your CAC credentials from the CAC card to the login (default)
keychain.
a) Insert your USB CAC reader into the system
b) Launch Keychain Access (Go | Utilities | Keychain Access)
c) Click on Show Keychains.
d) Insert your CAC into the reader.
Note that a new entry appears (smart card #x).
e) Click on the smart card #x keychain.
f) Select the certificates with your name (Last.First.MI.xxxxxxx) and click
on Edit
| Copy.
g) Click on the login (default) keychain and click on Edit | Paste.
