[SmartcardServices-Users] NG CAC Problems

[Mike Masica]

I am having issues accessing DoD CAC-enabled sites from my home  
computer (MacBook 2.2GHz Intel Core 2 Duo with OSX 10.5.8) using  
Safari Version 5.0 (5533.16) since I received an updated DoD Gemalto  
TOPDLGX4 144 Smart Card.  I was able to access DoD sites (specifically https://webmail.east.nmci.navy.mil/) 
  with my old CAC card without issue.

When I open Keychain Access with the CAC in the card reader, I am able  
to see the CACNG in the list and see four certificates (2 DOD CA-24  
and 2 DOD EMAIL CA-24 certificates) and am able to set an identity  
preference assigning the certificate (DOD EMAIL CA-24) but when I try  
to access the NMCI webmail site listed above, I get into a do-loop in  
Safari where it keeps asking me which certificate I want to use.

I have reviewed the Smart Card Services users list and see several  
other tickets describing this same problem.

Please advise on any tips to correct this discrepancy.

Thank you.
