Mac OS X 10.5.4
I've got the root certs installed
I've got the SCR331 reader working
I can "see" the certs and keys in the Keychain Access
In both Safari and Firefox3 when trying to access the Air Force portal I
get the error:
CAC Authentication Error
You may have pressed the "Cancel" button in your browser's certificate
selection prompt. If you're trying to authenticate with your CAC, please
close all open browser windows and try again. Otherwise, press the
browser's back button to return to your previous page.
Everything I've read and heard says I need to create an ID Preference for
the AF portal telling it which cert to use. This makes sense, since the
portal is still allowing username/password logins. But I can't figure out
exactly how to do that. I even found Shawn's 10.4 Applescript
"SetIdentityPreference" that's supposed to create such a thing, but either
I'm running it wrong or it won't work in 10.5.4. I get the dialog box, but
then the script exits with no noticeable difference in my Keychain.
I've searched the archives and found a post saying they had to create the
ID Prefence in "My Certificates" with the CAC Keychain selected.
All well and good, but I still can't figure out how to actually create
something called an identity preference.
Help will be appreciated and posted.
Thanks!
