The goal is to use a private key on the client computer to authenticate the user with the web server instead of a user name and password system. I know its a long shot but if anyone has anything i would appreciate it.

That user will be able to use any computer and authenticate into the site using that thumb drive. im starting to think that its not possible being that goggle is blank on the topic and there hasn't been much response here.
