Lance,

Which OS are you using?  From having to deal with a similar problem in OS X 10.10 Yosemite with my customers, I'm aware of a known problem on that one OS version.

Hi Shawn,

Yes, I already enabled smart cards for login.  So I guess I’m having another issue as I’ve set that option but my screensaver still doesn’t turn on after I pull my CAC.  The read command returns correct information.

sh-3.2# defaults read /Users/myuser/Library/Preferences/com.apple.screensaver.plist 

{

    askForPassword = 1;

    askForPasswordDelay = 0;

    tokenRemovalAction = 1;

}

Is there anything else I can check?

Thanks,

Lance

Hello,
Does anyone know how to configure activating the screensaver after pulling your token out of the CAC reader?

Lance,

If you already have enabled use of smartcards for login, you can simply click on on the “Advanced…” tab at the lower right-hand corner.

System Preferences -> Security & Privacy ->  Advanced…

This could be scripted with the following commands (Replace <username> with the actual account name):

(This ends up being the easiest syntax for many)

sudo /usr/libexec/plistbuddy -c "Add:tokenRemovalAction integer 1" /Users/<username>/Library/Preferences/com.apple.screensaver.plist
sudo /usr/libexec/plistbuddy -c "Add:askForPassword integer 1" /Users/<username>/Library/Preferences/com.apple.screensaver.plist
sudo /usr/libexec/plistbuddy -c "Add:askForPasswordDelay integer 0" /Users/<username>/Library/Preferences/com.apple.screensaver.plist

You can also READ what the settings are using ‘defaults':

$ sudo defaults read  /Users/<username>/Library/Preferences/com.apple.screensaver

Which would give you the following:

{

    askForPassword = 1;

    askForPasswordDelay = 0;

    tokenRemovalAction = 1;

}
