Hello all, Has anyone on the list had experience with the yubikey and linux? http://www.yubico.com/yubikey Just curious to know since it seems like a nifty means of 2 factor authentication. Cheers, Chris

Hi Chris, Yes, we use them a lot. They work well. Regards Glen Ogilvie

From the description I could not imaging it failing to work. The device emulates a USB keyboard that types a code when you press the button. It should work just about anywhere!

There pretty neat, they gave them away as conf swag at LCA a couple of years ago, could bring one along for you to have a look at, once we get running again.

What measures should one take in the eventuality that this little device is lost or stolen? On 2/10/12, Ronnie Collinson <notthinking(a)gmail.com> wrote:

It it is stolen, then update the yubico server to block the key. I recommend using the python implementation of the server, yubiserve. Regards Glen Ogilvie
