    What type of key do you have. Yubikey 5 supports multiple protocols including some you can use with SSH:

    • Multi-protocol: YubiKey 5 Series is the most versatile security key supporting multiple authentication protocols including FIDO2/WebAuthn (hardware bound passkey), FIDO U2F, Yubico OTP, OATH-TOTP, OATH-HOTP, Smart card (PIV) and OpenPGP.

    SSH would need to implement webauthn to support FIDO.






  • Sometimes it helps to feel bad for the person rather than get angry. As Gandalf said in the LOTR:

    “Frodo: ‘It’s a pity Bilbo didn’t kill Gollum when he had the chance.’
    Gandalf: 'Pity? It’s pity that stayed Bilbo’s hand. Many that live deserve death. Some that die deserve life. Can you give it to them, Frodo? Do not be too eager to deal out death in judgment.”

    Remember that plumber earns his livelihood on his professional reputation. If he cannot keep an appointment, he is failing at his career.
