CAC Questions
I have locked out my CAC Card, who should I call?
For information about unlocking your CAC Card please call Brian Rooney in the ONR Security office at
703-696-6845.
I have a new CAC Card, what do I need to do to make it work with Citrix?
To get your new certificates to work you should first delete the old certificates. To delete the old certificates,
open up an Internet Explorer window. In Internet Explorer, select the tools menu. Under tools select "Internet Options" and then click on
the "Content" tab. Under Content, locate and click on the "Certificates" button. A new window will appear. In this window there should be three (3)
certificates with your name on them. Select each certificate and click on the "Remove" button. A confirmation prompt will
appear for each certificate. Click on "Yes". Close all Internet Explorer windows.
You must now register your new certificates. First insert your new CAC Card into your card reader.
To register new certificates, locate ActivClient in your programs menu and open the user console.
In the user console select "Tools" and then "Advanced". From this menu select "Make certificates available to windows...".
A box will appear letting you know your certificates have been registered. You may now use your new CAC Card with Citrix.
Citrix Questions
I have locked myself out of my Legacy Account, what do I do?
To have your Legacy Account unlocked please call the OneDesk at 703-696-1313 option 1.
I have forgotten my Legacy Account password, what do I do?
To have your Legacy Account password reset, ONR policy requires verification of offsite network users.
There are several ways that you can do this. If you have another account that you can send a digitally signed email
from, you may send an email to OneDesk@onr.navy.mil asking that your password be reset.
If you are at another ONR Office, or with another ONR user, you may have an ONR Legacy Network user send a digitally signed
email to OneDesk@onr.navy.mil stating that they have verified your identity and
asking that your password be reset. Finally, you may call someone at ONR HQ who would be willing to voice verify you, and ask
them to send a digitally signed email to OneDesk@onr.navy.mil stating that
they have verified your identity and asking that your password be reset.
When I try to connect to Citrix, I am getting a box that says "Reconnecting", is Citrix down?
There are several reasons that this may appear, please call the OneDesk at 703-696-1313 option 1 to
troubleshoot this matter.
When I click on ONR Remote Desktop, it hangs at "Connecting to ONR Remote Desktop", what do I do?
First try rebooting your computer. If this does not solve the problem please call the OneDesk
at 703-696-1313 option 1 to troubleshoot this matter.
When I go to the services2 page I get a "Page Cannot Be Displayed" or "You Are Not Authorized to View This Page" message,
is Citrix down?
This message is normally not related to a problem with the Citrix Server. There are several things that
you can try to get the page to display. First ensure that your CAC Card is inserted into the reader, and if you have an ONR issued
USB card reader ensure that the green light on your card reader is blinking. If it is not the reader may not be properly reading the
card. Try removing the card and re-inserting it. Once you have verified your card is being read, open Internet Explorer and open
the tools menu. In the tools menu select "Internet Options" and click on the "Content" tab. Under the "Certificates" heading look for
a button that says "Clear SSL State". If this button is available click it and click "OK" on the popup window letting you know the SSL state
has been cleared. Close all remaining Internet Explorer windows. Open a new window and try the website again.
If you are still unable to get the website open and are using a non-NMCI computer, open up an Internet Explorer window. Open the tools menu.
Select "Internet Options" and click on the "Connections" tab. Select "LAN Settings". In the window that opens, look to the bottom for
an option that says "Use a Proxy Server for your LAN...". If this box is checked, uncheck the box. Click on "OK". Close all remaining Internet
Explorer windows, open a new Internet Explorer window, and try the website again.
If the website is not working at this point, both NMCI and non-NMCI computers should be rebooted. If the website will not appear after a reboot,
please call the OneDesk at 703-696-1313 option 1.
I cannot access the internet after using Citrix, what is wrong?
If you are using a non-NMCI computer, open up an Internet Explorer window. Open the tools menu.
Select "Internet Options" and click on the "Connections" tab. Select "LAN Settings". In the window that opens, look to the bottom for
an option that says "Use a Proxy Server for your LAN...". If this box is checked, uncheck the box. Click on "OK". Close all remaining Internet
Explorer windows, open a new Internet Explorer window, and try the website again.
If you are using an NMCI computer, or if the above fix did not solve the problem, reboot your computer. You should be able to connect to all
websites again after the restart.
For all other errors please call OneDesk at 703-696-1313 option 1 for assistance.
