Safari can use my CAC (Smart) Card to login to government websites but Firefox cannot.

Safari and even Google Crome can access my CAC Card and login to government websites, however Firefox just doesn't seem to even try. OSX Lion, Apple Macbook Pro, Firefox 5.0.1.

  • How can use a CAC smart card on an iPad 3?

    How can I use a CAC givernment smart card on an iPad 3. I am using citrix receiver to access the system.

    Some suggestions were made in this thread from last year:

    I don't know whether any are still viable, but it might be a place to start.

  • How to CAC (Smart Card) enable the server within JDev

    I need to know how to CAC (Smart Card) enable the server within JDev, or if it is even possible.

    Kamran,
    you are definitely thinking in the right direction.
    1) Would I need to export or enter all the existing users of the system presently available through an internal database to the SSO Repository or there is a different way of getting the users to the OID when they first run the url or our Oracle Forms App?
    You have a choice: pre-load (probably using LDIF) or create what I call a self-registration process. Pre-load will require the arduous task of gathering the CAC user CN's in advance. This is technically easy but logistically a nightmare.
    I created a self-registration JSP which is invoked by a failure to lookup a user in OID. Registration involves requiring a user to enter valid database credentials, testing the credentials (by making a connection) and binding the database userid/password to the CAC identity.
    2) How would I get the CAC Certificate CN from the Browser or CAC Card so I can make the comparison to the OID CN?
    When you configure the SSO for certificate authentication, the HTTP_Server will pass the SSL variables (which include the CAC certificate which was authenticated in the SSL handshake) to the sso/web application deployed in the OC4J_SECURITY container. You can install your own plug-in that the SSO will invoke where you can retrieve the authenticated certificate and get any of the information therein from Java.
    I recommend you get very acquainted with the SSO Admin Guide (esp. Cert authentication chapter), as well as, the Forms Deployment Guide (esp. SSO chapter).
    There is too much to fit here. Things would be a lot easier if Forms Server supported enterprise users for authentication to database. Forms apps are relegated to the whole business of RADs and such which gives you X.509 certificate (and thus CAC) authentication but is rather convoluted IMHO (password in the clear in the RAD, orclResourceViewer permission for Forms Server, userid/password login in the background) but that is a different discussion.
    Good Luck.
    regards,
    tt

  • How to configure Firefox to use cert from smart card reader on Sun Ray 3 Plus

    I have a Sun Ray 3 Plus configured so the user needs a smart card to login (CAC card) and bring up a Java Desktop on the Sun Ray Server (Solaris 10 SPARC).
    Now I am trying to get Firefox to read the certificate from the smart card reader but not sure how to go about doing that.
    From searching online, it seems like I have to load a module in Firefox:
    Edit -> Preferences -> Certificates -> Security Devices
    But what file do I load? I'm assuming it is a file that's part of the SUNWut package?

  • I am an exchange student for the year and I would like to by an iphone that i can use in France also, so I need an unlocked one but i don't want to pay to much for it... What should I do?

    What do you mean what should you do?  Just because you don't want to pay too much for a phone, doesn't make the price any cheaper.  If you can't afford the price of an unlocked phone, then you don't, or can't, buy one.

  • My iPod touch works with my home wi Fi but when I use public wi Fi I can send emails and go to websites but I cannot send emails

  • I would like to use my work exchange email on my macbook pro.  But I cannot insult it.  I have not problem as on my iPhone or iPad.  My work IT person does not know what is wrong.

    I would like to use my work exchange email on my macbook pro.  But I cannot install it.  I have no problem my work email on my iPhone or iPad.  My work IT person does not know what is wrong.  Why I try to set up the email I get the message that it cannot connect to this server. 

    Try going into System Prefereces then Mail, Cintacts & Calendars then click on the Microsoft Exchange link on the right. Type in your email address and password and allow it to set it up automatically.
    Make sure your Mac is updated to the newest version of Mail.
    If that still fails then I suggest you switch email clients. I don't care for the built in mail program. IMHO it is very buggy.

  • Government CAC (Smart Cards) interface to Oracle 10g Forms and Reports

    Am working an Oracle Forms and Oracle Reports (10g) WEB applications for an Air Force customer. They are wanting to use Smart Cards (CAC) to log onto their PCs and do not want to have to enter logon and passsword to enter my Oracle WEB appliaction.
    Has anyone or does anyone know of a government customer that has an Oracle forms and reports application that does not require a login and password, but uses the CAC card information to connect? If so can you please provide name of organization and contact information. thanks [email protected]

    Hi,
    I have been researching a CAC card solution for a DOD customer.
    We plan (hope) to authenticate users against their Active Directory accounts using Oracle Internet Directory and Single Sign-on Server. Active directory reads the CAC card, and Oracle verifies they are authenticated in Active Directory.
    Oracle Windows Native Authentication (WNA) may be what you're looking for.
    Here's an OBE on enabling WNA:
    http://www.oracle.com/technology/obe/obe_as_10g/im/wna/wna.htm
    Chapter 43 of the Oracle Internet Directory (9.0.4) guide discusses integration with Windows Active Directory:
    http://download-east.oracle.com/docs/cd/B10464_05/manage.904/b12118/odip_act.htm#127412
    If you haven't already done it, search these forums for "CAC". You'll find other posts from people who have implemented CAC authentication in their Oracle products.
    Good luck!
