windowsmacos
Symptoms
Enterprise Email or another DoD site refuses login with an F5 session error.
Likely cause
Old session/cached cert is being reused; on Dual Persona users the PIV cert may not be exposed.
Fix
Windows:
1. Apply the IE configuration guide.
2. If Dual Persona, expose the PIV certificate per militarycac.com/PIV.htm.
Mac:
1. Clear the keychain login entries for the failing site (Keychain Access > login > delete Identity Preferences for the host).
2. Safari > Settings > Privacy > Manage Website Data > Remove the site.
3. Retry and select the Authentication certificate.
