[PVE-User] Fwd: Hardware based License are not recognized from VM

[Tom Weber]

If you're talking about the typical USB Dongle in Hardware as License
Key, I'd always try to use an USB Network Device Server and avoid
putting the Dongles in the Server.

This also gives you the ability to move the VMs around.
