I have one Yubikey which works fine with KeeChallenge.
If I program another Yubikey using the same Secret Key, will it open my original KeePass database without having to use recovery mode or update anyting in Keepass? In other words, can just duplicate hardware (Yubikey) without any software changes?

On a related note... If I forget my Secret Key, but have working Yubikey programmed with that Secret Key, I will be able to open a copy of the original database on a new PC. Correct?
