At this time, I was greeted with this message, this is good,
because it tells us that An appropriate client is available on
your computer. However, it is not giving us the ability to
use our CAC. So, Quit all Safari web browsers, reopen one
and to back to
https://rasxtra.usar.army.mil
![Log On](images/macrap/Screenshot%202014-02-18%2022.44.35.png)
After you quit Safari, reopen it, got back to
https://rasxtra.usar.army.mil, you may be greeted with this
message:
![There are no authentication methods currently available image](images/macrap/Screenshot%202014-02-18%2022.47.22.png)
Randy Farley informed MilitaryCAC on 31 March how he got it to
work.
We needed to open Safari / Preferences
![Safari preferences](macrap_files/safari_preferences.jpg)
Select the Advanced (gear), and click Show Develop
menu in menu bar, then close the advanced menu
![Show Develop menu in menu bar](macrap_files/img2C.jpg)
Click the word Develop in the top bar of Safari, then User Agent
/ Internet Explorer 9.0
.
You
need to adjust Java in your Safari web browser
There is an additional step to utilize Safari for the
Army Reserve Remote Access Portal. The new security features in Safari
prevent RAP from reading and writing to its configuration files without
explicit permissions.
In order to grant the necessary permissions to web sites
running RAP, you must edit Safari's security preferences.
NOTE: I am not sure if these steps are
still needed with newer version of Mac OS.
El Capitan 10.11.x- From the "Safari" menu, choose "Preferences"
and then go to the "Security" (tab). Here, you will see a
section titled "Internet plug-ins" with a button that says "Plug-in
Settings..." . When you click
on the button, you will see an image similar to the one below:
Yosemite 10.10.x- From the "Safari" menu, choose "Preferences"
and then go to the "Security" (tab). Here, you will see a
section titled "Internet plug-ins" with a button that says "Website settings..."
. When you click on the button, you will see
an image similar to the one below:
Mavericks 10.9.x- From the "Safari" menu, choose "Preferences"
and then go to the "Security" (tab). Here, you will see a
button that says "Manage website settings...". When you
click on the button, you will see
an image similar to the one below:
Select Java
![ARNetJavaAdjustment](macrap_files/arnet_java_settings_for_safari.png)
Locate the web site that uses RAP in the list (rasxtra.usar.army.mil). In the
drop down box to the right of the web site address, choose "Run in Unsafe
mode". This gives RAP the permissions it needs to run properly.
DO NOT change this setting for web sites you do not explicitly trust.
![Run in UnSafe Mode](images/RunInUnsafeMode.PNG)
Once you've selected Run in Unsafe Mode,
select Trust
If you do not see the rasxtra.usar.army.mil web site in the list, you
need to visit the site again and attempt to use RAP. You should be able to change the settings now.
You are now ready to try it again
