Nitrokey HSM - Problem with passthrough to VMware virtual machine

Hi Guys,

i found a way around the problem myself. Should have read the available ressources and forum posts better. For future reference and for anyone with the same problem.

Afterwards initialization and usage of the Nitrokey HSM is possible.

Basically everything has been said already in the forum post “Nitrokey Pro installation under RHEL7/CentOS7” (thanks to user jwildeboer, can´t link to it because i can only put 2 links in my post…), only installation of the udev rules file was missing there. I guess this is done with installing the nitrokey app (which i don´t use with the Nitrokey HSM).

Suggestion: For a better user experience, some official step by step tutorials to get things running would be really nice.
