I received a brand-new Yubikey 4 and wanted to copy an existing OpenPGP key onto it for testing purposes. During the process, I had several issues with russing gpg-agent and such, so I was unsure which password to enter at which time. I worked according to this How To. However, I ended up with gpg: card is permanently locked! as in: Code: me@desktop ~ $ gpg --card-edit can't connect to `/home/me/.gnupg/S.gpg-agent': No such file or directory Application ID ...: D276xxx Version ..........: 2.1 Manufacturer .....: unknown Serial number ....: 0xxxx Name of cardholder: [not set] Language prefs ...: [not set] Sex ..............: unspecified URL of public key : [not set] Login data .......: [not set] Private DO 1 .....: [not set] Private DO 2 .....: [not set] Signature PIN ....: not forced Key attributes ...: 2048R 2048R 2048R Max. PIN lengths .: 127 127 127 PIN retry counter : 3 0 0 Signature counter : 0 Signature key ....: [none] Encryption key....: [none] Authentication key: [none] General key info..: [none] gpg/card> admin Admin commands are allowed gpg/card> url URL to retrieve public key: http://www.... gpg: card is permanently locked! gpg: error setting URL: bad passphrase I get a similar error message when trying to move a private key onto the Yubikey 4: Code: gpg> keytocard Please select where to store the key: (2) Encryption key Your selection? 2 gpg: KEYTOCARD failed: Bad secret key I found some explanations on how to reset the NEO, but I don't think that the mentioned reset mechanisms work with the Yubikey 4 as well. How can I resolve this issue?

Covered on our website: http://www.homedepot.com/p/Suncast-Trem ... /204725195 Our developers website: https://developers.yubico.com/ykneo-ope ... pplet.html On the forum: viewtopic.php?f=26&t=2182 viewtopic.php?f=35&t=2193 Only difference in OpenPGP reset between YubiKey NEO and YubiKey 4 is the replies you get from PGP connect agent which confirm each PIN has been locked out successfully and the card has been terminated.
