Please this website with your friends and colleagues

1.  A CAC reader is not required to log into AKO, only when it is time to change your password and make changes to accounts you sponsor.  You DON'T have to buy a CAC reader IF you have access to a reader at another location, (like your unit).  However, unless your unit has 2 CAC readers hooked up to one of their computers, this option might not exist.

*  Please consider these reasons why you might want to have your own CAC reader at home.

*  Here are instructions on how to register your CAC with AKO

2.  Accessing the below software links will require your AKO (Army Knowledge Online) or DKO (Defense Knowledge Online) login and password.  I have found out that the links will work easier and faster, IF you log into AKO / DKO first, minimize that page and then use the links on the other pages within this website.

3.  If you want the install to work correctly the first time, I recommend you install the software in the order it is listed on my "1 stop shop" page.  This will involve installing the Driver for CAC Reader, downloading and installing the DoD Certificates, downloading and installing ActivClient software, If you plan on working on military forms, you will need to download and install the Lotus Forms and Approve It software. 

4.  Some of the links will open up a new page.  I do this, so you won't lose where you are on the current page.  You might need to allow "pop ups" on this website.

5.  This website is designed to primarily assist US Army personnel.
