- Thread-topic: [Fed-Talk] CAC access to Defense Connect Online
Once you register on from a Windows PC, you can get on from a Mac with
username and password. Everything seems to work fine from there. I
just conducted a training session this morning using my MBP. The web
application I was demonstrating required CAC and that worked fine. I
don't know if the people on the other end noticed that I was using a Mac
or not. They were all PC users.

This won't help you. DCO uses a Java applet that's going direct to the
PCSC daemon via the javax.smartcardio API, which is only in Apple's Java
1.6 or later, and side-steps the CDSA framework that uses the ID
preferences.
Under 10.5 the login applet won't even run because javax.smartcardio
raises an exception on failing to load the PCSC framework (Java 1.6 is
64-bit only, and under 10.5 the PCSC libraries are 32-bit).
Under 10.6 the applet launches but doesn't detect the card status. I
haven't debugged this yet.
