Pressing YubiKeys

A little off topic: Does anyone know of a way to get the results of a yubikey press into a remote desktop session? I frequently remote desktop into laptops that are in arms reach. If I need to use the yubikey, I have to remove it and plug it into my desktop and press it, since it acts as a local keyboard.

Wouldn't a local keyboard type into a remote desktop session? If a local keyboard can't type into a remote desktop session, the remote desktop session sounds mostly useless.

The local keyboard attached to the remote computer.

I don't usually RDP to machines withing reach of me, I would prefer to use a KVM. Also I usually keep a security key in my local machine.

But I guess for convenient monitor sharing it could be useful to RDP into a machine within your reach.

What is likely an actual problem though is if your security key uses U2F and you have it plugged into your local machine.
