1. To import an internal root CA certificate on a Mac host, you export the certificate from your Horizon FLEX server and import it to the Mac. Prerequisites Become familiar with how to install and use the MMC Certificates snap-in on a Windows system.
2. ROOT is available on Linux, Mac, and (as a beta release) on Windows. The latest stable ROOT release is 6.22/02 (about ROOT versioning scheme). There are several ways to install ROOT on your computer: they are all listed in the table of content on the right. Which one is best for you depends on your operating system and usage requirements.

Many enterprise IT systems at NPS make use of SSL certificates issued by the DoD. If your browser doesn't trust them, you may run into issues. Reinstalling the certs is always a good step in troubleshooting as well. Get started with installing the latest certificates by reviewing the tutorials below.

InstallRoot Tool. The InstallRoot application is the simplest and most straightforward way to install all DOD certificates in your windows operating system, and supports Internet Explorer, Chrome, Firefox, and Java. Select your corresponding computer architecture type from the links below: (NIPR Windows Installer, for SIPR certificates access DISA's site directly from a SIPR machine). If the Mac Computer has the 'WeKnow' malware on it, I would contact Support first. They will probably do a 'Remote' on the computer to clear the malware first then install WSA. WSA may protect the computer from getting the malware but if the malware is already on the computer before installing WSA Support would have to look at that. Install with Visual Studio for Mac. Visual Studio for Mac installs the.NET Core SDK when the.NET Core workload is selected. To get started with.NET Core development on macOS, see Install Visual Studio 2019 for Mac. For the latest release,.NET Core 3.1, you must use the Visual Studio for Mac 8.4. Install alongside Visual Studio Code.

Installing Root On Mac Os X

Notes:

There should be 55 DoD certs available in the Mac Keychain Access Utility.

Recently we got some support request tickets regarding MAC clients which weren’t able to sign-in into Lync because they were missing the necessary root CA certificates.
Those root CA certificates are required in order to sign-in into Lync rather it’s on the internal or external network.

the following guide was written by a colleague of mine, Lior Gilboa and it explain how to install a root CA certificate on a MAC client:

Mac Root User

1. Open the Keychain Access application, you can find it in the Launchpad or find it with Spotlight.
   
2. Locate the certificate file (.CER) you have received from your system administrator and double click it.
   The following message will popup, change the Keychain to “System” and click ‘Add’.
   
3. You will be asked to put in your password to approve the Keychain modification,
   The Keychain Access Insert your password and click “Modify Keychain”.
4. The following popup will appear.
   
5. Expand Trust by clicking the small arrow next to it and verify Always Trust is marked.
   Then click “Always Trust” on the popup window.
   
6. You will be asked to insert your password again, insert it and click “Update Settings”.
7. Now, in the Keychain Access application, navigate to System under Key chains and select Certificates under Category on the left pane.
   Verify that the new certificate appears and marked with a small blue point with a white plus sign in it.
   That’s It.
