6.1.1 Operating Systems<br />
There are three different Operating System (OS) platforms that have been tested with the DoD<br />
<strong>PKI</strong> infrastructure. A computer’s Operating System will provide the basis for all hardware and<br />
middleware that will be utilized for the DoD <strong>PKI</strong> implementation. The OS platforms are typical<br />
of those that would be in use at any given fielding site.<br />
The OS platforms are:<br />
• Windows 98.<br />
• Windows NT 4.0 with SP6.<br />
• Windows 2000 Professional.<br />
There may be variations in the setup and installation of specific card readers and middleware<br />
depending on the OS in use at a particular site.<br />
Windows 2000 & NT Platform Installation:<br />
An installer must be logged in as an ADMINISTRATOR in order to successfully install Card<br />
Readers and Middleware on Windows 2000 and NT Platforms.<br />
6.1.2 Applications<br />
Specific applications need to be installed and configured on a workstation to support the<br />
interoperability of all aspects of the <strong>PKI</strong> infrastructure. These will include applications for email<br />
services and web browsing.<br />
Email Services:<br />
• Microsoft Outlook 98 2 nd Edition or Outlook 2000<br />
Web Browsers:<br />
• Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.0 with 128-bit encryption.<br />
• Netscape Communicator 4.77 with 128-bit encryption.
