HyperV Manager with SmartCard

Using the console interface provided by HyperV Manager does not seem to
provide SmartCard sharing like RDP. Is there some way to configure this to
work using HyperV Manager? In RDP, the setting is under Local Resources >
More > SmartCards. My fingers are crossed for a registry setting!

I suggest this to be enabled by default to make it easier on the
high-security industries.

Thanks!

Re: HyperV Manager with SmartCard

So far as I'm aware, there is no way to do this from the console app. You'd
need to use RDP to do it.

Re: HyperV Manager with SmartCard

Thanks Charlie!

How can I turn this into a suggestion to Microsoft? I just tested VPC, VMRC
and VMRC+; each with the same result. Banking, DoD and others need this
(VMWare has it through USB emulation of a SmartCard reader).

Thanks again!

Re: HyperV Manager with SmartCard

There are workarounds to get USB into Hyper-V. Products such as USB over
Network, which I've reviewed on my blog and like. MS knows we want USB
support. When we'll get it is something they have made zero comment on.
