Yubikey from macOS to Linux

[cro]

Greetings,

I have a Yubikey that I would like to connect to a Mac and have recognized on a Debian Linux VM via NoMachine.

I can see the key in the NX client as both a USB device and a smartcard.  I can forward both of these devices over to the Linux box, and lsusb shows the Yubikey.

# lsusb
Bus 004 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0003 Linux Foundation 3.0 root hub
Bus 003 Device 006: ID 1050:0407 Yubico.com Yubikey 4/5 OTP+U2F+CCID
Bus 003 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0003 Linux Foundation 3.0 root hub
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 0e0f:0003 VMware, Inc. Virtual Mouse
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub

Yubikey Manager acknowledges the key is there and gives the right serial number but other app selections say it cannot connect to the key.

NoMachine is 8.3.1 on both machines.  macOS is Ventura 13.2, Linux is up-to-date Debian Unstable, kernel 6.1.0, Gnome DE.

Thanks for reporting this on Debian Unstable. Can you please try a different distro, one of those that we officially support, and tell us if you have the same issue? We are not able to reproduce it.
