Is it possible to utilise my Javacard configuration (gpg key) on a virtual machine running on my MacBook via VMWare Fusion? The VM is a ubuntu 12.04 desktop image and I don't see my Yubikey register at all via dmesg but pressing the button causes the generation of a OTP. When I plug a normal thumb drive in, it is automatically detected and passed through to the Ubuntu VM and I can see ubuntu initialising the drive in dmesg. |

Yes, that's possible. However, default VMware policy is, not to pass HID devices to VMs. You can change that by editing the VM's .vmx file adding Code: usb.generic.allowHID = "TRUE" and reboot the VM. The yubikey will then appear as a (one of) "unknown" devices that can be attached. See here: http://www.symantec.com/connect/blogs/enabling-hid-devices-such-usb-keyboards-barcode-scanners-vmware |
