Has anyone gotten this to work with Leopard? I've tried it with Adobe
Reader 8.1.1 on Mac OS X 10.5.1 and as soon as I enter the path to the
pkcs11 bundle and click OK, Adobe Reader quits.

You need to load the PKCS#11 *bundle* (not the module) into Reader.
Select Document | Security Settings, select on "PKCS#11 Module" and
click on "Attach Module". The path is:
/usr/libexec/SmartCardServices/pkcs11/pkcs11.bundle
Then you need to load the DoD PKI certificates Reader and establish
trust. This part is painful. Select Document | Manage Trusted
Identities. Select "Certificates" from the drop-down box. Click on
"Add Contacts". In the "Choose Contacts to Import" dialog, click on
"Browse" and select either a DoD CA certificate file *or* a PKCS#7
bundle of DoD CA certificates. PKCS#7 bundles can be downloaded from:
http://dodpki.c3pki.chamb.disa.mil/rel3_dodroot_1024.cac http://dodpki.c3pki.chamb.disa.mil/rel3_dodroot_2048.cac
After importing the bundles, select a certificate in the bottom list
of the "Choose Contacts to Import" dialog and click "Trust." Click
the checkboxes for "Signatures and as a trusted root" and "Certified
documents." DO THIS FOR EVERY DOD PKI CA.
At this point you *should* be ready to sign. You'll need a PDF that
will support signatures--you can't sign arbitrary PDFs, only forms
developed for signatures.
I did have a problem after doing the above, but when I went back to
it the next day, the error had gone away. Not sure what happened or
why it cleared, but I had rebooted my laptop between sessions, so
maybe that had something to do with it.
