- Thread-topic: CAC's Firefox and OS X 10.5.4+
Has anyone figured out a configuration/software bundle that will get Firefox
to access CAC based certificates when using OS X 10.5.4 or later with the
Apple CAC related patches?
There are some sites that just will not work with Safari (I am actually
running 10.5.6 and I have identify preferences entered in KeyChain Access)
and it works with some DoD sites.
Unfortunately other web sites don't work with the Apple supplied Safari
based approach so I am hoping that Firefox might do the trick.
Any help will be much appreciated.
Walter
