  • 1.  Yubikey passthrough does not work

    Hello,

    I plugged a yubikey on the ESXi to redirect its on a VM :

    lsusb | grep 'Yubi'
    Bus 001 Device 002: ID 1050:0407 Yubico.com Yubikey 4/5 OTP+U2F+CCID

    I tried everyting to redirect a usb yubikey to a VM, but nohing works.

    I first add to /bootbank/boot.cfg:

    kernelopt=autoPartition=FALSE CONFIG./USB/quirks=0x1050:0x0407::0xffff:UQ_KBD_IGNORE

    and to /etc/vmware/config:

    usb.quirks.device0 = "0x1050:0x0407 allow"

    and to the vmx file of the VM:

    usb.generic.allowHID = "TRUE"
    usb.generic.allowLastHID = "TRUE"
    usb.quirks.device0 = "0x1050:0x0407 allow"

    But, even after the reboot of the ESXi, the command:

    esxcli hardware usb passthrough device list

    return nothing :'( :'(

    The ESXi is on 7.0.3 version.

    Is there a way to passthrough the yubikey ?
