USB security dongle key in VMware Guest

Today I had problem with one of our software which needed HW USB key, but I needed to install this software to VMware client OS windows 2008.

Solution is easy, at least in version 5.1 VMware, where is support for USB devices. This support has been added in VMware version 4.0.

First you have to add USB controller in properties of virtual guest. 

And after this you can add USB dongle. You can see, that I have two dongles of same type.

List of supported types of dongle is here: http://kb.vmware.com/...

In guest windows OS you have to install drivers for USB dongle (drivers of controller are in standard  windows installation).
