I was wondering if it would be doable to have the option to automatically lock the workstation when the Yubikey is removed from the USB port, similar to how most smart card authentication solutions work.

Right now there is nothing like that included or started, the YubiKey Logon package only deals with windows logon.

Indeed this would be nice!

It would actually be easy to write a monitoring program in c# checking to see if a yubikey is inserted and if it is removed the computer would be locked. The yubilogon settings could even be incorporated to it...

The source code is available on github (https://github.com/Yubico/yubico-windows-auth) if you want to take a poke at it, we'd be happy to incorporate patches and features.

This would be cool especially if it worked seemlessly with the Windows Login with YubiKey (Beta) product.

I found a separate piece of software at http://www.5group.com/wordpress/tag/yubikey/
It is called autolock it enables a similar functionality unfortunately it has to be configured each time at start-up.

If you still want to lock your PC when the YubiKey is removed, download Rohos Logon Key
http://www.rohos.com/products/rohos-logon-key/

You can configure it to do lots of things when the key is removed, like sleep, hibernate, shut down, lock

I hope this helps, if you need any help with it, like configuring it or anything like that, then make a new topic and mention it here. I'll help as much as possible. :)

I tried to attach the setup file but its 0.80 Mb too large, sorry.

Hi,

I made this small utility that does pretty much what you want.

https://sourceforge.net/projects/yubimonistd-gt/

Do not hesitate to comment as I'm always looking to improve.

Also, make sure you have the API installed. The program doesn't install the API

BTW, I just noticed I strictly use the x64 API.

I will compile a 32bit version using the 32bit API this week.
