I’m using OS 10.9 and find that if I have both the CAC.tokend and the PIV.tokend installed, that only the first card used is supported and the next is not recognized.  I end up having to remove one of the tokend for the other to work.  Is there a tokend that supports both CAC and PIV or some way to allow both to be used such that the correct tokend is selected based on the card inserted?

Tim,

After sending a response to Ed just now on his message, I saw and realized that you had provided a response on Nov 25, unfortunately, with respect to Smart Card Services on OS X your information is not correct.

With respect to the OS X Tokend modules (originally included in OS X and now provided via the SmarCardServices Project):
 
CAC 	- Original Common Access Cards with a single CAC Applet
CACNG 	- CACNG Cards with both CACv2 and PIV Applets (some refer to this as Dual-Persona)
PIV 		- Cards with only the PIV Applet

Each one of these Card Profiles are supported by the corresponding Tokend modules provided:
	CAC.tokend, CACNG.tokend, and PIV.tokend

Cards recognized on OS X as having the CACNG profile will have objects from both Applets appear and be usable from one single Dynamic Keychain.  Its default Keychain Name will begin with “CACNG-…..”

You can use and select ANY of the certificates from either the CACv2 or the PIV side of the CACNG Card at all times on OS X.  If you or anyone who has an issued CACNG is having troubles with this, I would love to get more information on the actual/perceived failures.
