Device is USB keychain which reports itself as:

dpavlin@llin:~$ lsusb | grep Aladdin
Bus 003 Device 002: ID 0529:0600 Aladdin Knowledge Systems eToken Pro 64k (4.2)

Based on great instructions which just makes me go: uuh, why does Internet claims this is hard?!

apt-get install opensc openct

Allow user to use token

sudo usermod -a -G scard dpavlin
