In this post we will see how to deploy client certificate for Mac computers. If you are looking to install SCCM client agents on Mac computers and manage Mac computers in System Center 2012 Configuration Manager, it requires public key infrastructure (PKI) certificates. Scroll through the same list of certificates, this time looking under the Issued By column, and ensure that there are NO certificates that reference 'DoD Interoperability.' If you find any certificates with this text, please select the certificate and choose the Remove button. Select Yes on the confirmation window to finalize this action. In the Properties of New Template dialog box, on the General tab, enter a template name to generate the Mac client certificate, such as Mac Client Certificate. Click the Subject Name tab, make sure that Build from this Active Directory information is selected, select Common name for the Subject name format: and clear User principal name (UPN.
Symptom
Symptoms
An error, 'Valid client certificate is required,' displays on the Firefox browser while accessing the portal address:
Diagnosis
GlobalProtect is configured with Certificate Authentication for the client.
The client certificate has been added in the 'personal' certificate store of the end user.
Other browsers like Chrome and IE are able to connect to the portal address successfully.
Resolution
- The error, 'Valid client certificate is required' while accessing the portal address displays when
the browser is unable to fetch the certificate to present it to the portal for authentication. - Here, the client certificate has already been added in the personal certificate store of the computer, so Chrome and IE are able to sync this certifcate from this personal store.
- If the same error displays in Chrome or IE, please verifiy that the certificate is present in the personal stores of these browsers.
For Firefox, the client certificate is not present in the 'Your Certificates' store, as seen below. Therefore, the browser is unable to present it to the portal for authentication:
Firefox maintains a separate store, compared to Chrome or IE, so the certificate must be explicitly imported.
Add the certificate in the 'Your Certificates' store of Firefox:
1. Click Options > Advanced > Certificates > View Certificates > Your Certificates > Import
2. Select the Client Certificate from the computer and enter the password to import.
Note that Client certificate needs to be imported with the private key.
The added certificate can now be seen as follows:
NOTE : If the same error displays on other browsers, the client certificate is required to be imported in the 'Personal Certificate' store of these browsers.

Whenever you upgrade your operating system (OS), you will need to CAC-enable (i.e. Public Key Enable) the system all over again. You should refer to the instructions and downloads available from the web pages under Getting Started for End Users (Mac) on DISA's Information Assurance Support Environment (IASE) website. You will need middleware to use your CAC on OS X. The instructions on IASE will direct you to Smartcard Services (middleware) downloads from Mac OS forge. Smartcard Services will work for most CACs and readers, however, if you do not see your CAC keychain in the Keychain Access.app after installing the Smartcard Services package and inserting your CAC in the card reader, then I recommend using another free middleware called Centrify Express.
Aside from installing middleware, you need to download and import the DoD Root and Intermediate Certificates in your Keychain Access. Most of the DoD certificates are available if you add the 'SystemCACertificates' keychain using the File > Add Keychain option and navigating through the folders to Macintosh HD > System > Library > Keychains. You need to download and import a few certificates into the 'login' keychain, such as DOD ROOT CA 2 (3 certificates total), DOD ROOT CA 3, and any intermediate certificates that issued the certificates on your CAC, which are greater than DOD CA-30 (such as DOD CA-31, DOD EMAIL CA-31, DOD CA-32, DOD EMAIL CA-32, DOD ID CA-33, DOD EMAIL CA-33, DOD ID CA-34, DOD EMAIL CA-34, etc.). Go to the Cross-Certificate Chaining Issue page to download two zip files (i.e.Certificates_PKCS7_v4.1u4_DoD.zip and unclass-irca1_dodroot_ca2.zip, then use the File > Import Certificate option to add the certificates to the 'login' keychain. All DoD Intermediate Certificates are available for download (one-by-one) from the DoD PKI Management website at https://crl.gds.disa.mil/ (download the Certificate Authority Certificate, not the Certificate Revocation List, i.e. CRL) for each certificate.
