This repository contains udev rules for Nitrokey devices. Previously, these rules were maintained as a part of libnitrokey.

The 41-nitrokey.rules file contains udev rules for these devices:

• Nitrokey 3
• Nitrokey HSM
• Nitrokey FIDO U2F
• Nitrokey FIDO2
• Nitrokey Passkey
• Nitrokey Pro
• Nitrokey Storage
• Nitrokey Start
• Nitrokey U2F

It requires udev 188 or later. For older udev versions, use the 41-nitrokey_old.rules from libnitrokey.

The rules use the uaccess tag which is a systemd mechanism.

To install the rules file, place it in /etc/udev/rules.d. The file prefix should be lower than 73 because the rules must be applied before udev’s 73-seat-late.rules.
