"Shared" checkbox next to "X509Certificates" (/System/Library/Keychains)
e.
X509Certificates will now appear in the Keychains List and will be
available for Intermediates for the whole trust path validation.
To export
certificates from Internet Explorer - Click on Tools - Internet Options
- Certificates. Click the Import button. Click Next.
Browse for the files one by one. Click Next. Select
Automatically Select the Certificate Store. Click Next.
Click Finish. These certificates may be imported into the Mac.
"The FSCP
(Apple Federal Smart Card Package) was ONLY for MAC Os X 10.2.3-10.2.8 and
nothing else... Since then, Apple has provided built-in support for
the US Federal Smart Cards. That document and the FSCP software should
never, ever be used other than for MAC OS X 10.2.3-10.2.8 and hopefully none
of you are using those versions."
Version 10.2, also known as Jaguar, is a few iterations
ago. Apple is now Leopard, OS X 10.5
