        I'm a bit late in this discussion, so sorry if this idea has already 
been axed, but could you buy a PCI card with USB ports and pass it through to 
the domU instead of trying to pass through a USB device?
        Dustin

You mean while it's attempting to start? See below.

I could probably get away with centos in a production environment, but 
definitely not fedora. SLES10 is our current "standard". Unfortunately I need 
usb functionality for a production server, whether that is or is not 
recommended. 

Thanks,
James
