disallowing user/pass authentication in favor of a pure key system?

okay, i'm confused. how exactly is this going to help me do what i want to do?
won't this prevent any normal login from happening?
i simply want to kill the user/pass system and enforce keys. i have my private key on my usb-flash device. and i only want to allow access to my network if the private key off the USB device is used... and no other way.
it's a really ugly way of using eTokens but if it works... i can wow some clients...
one though occured to me... but i really don't want to do it this way.
i could make the userpass word a long string of garbage... but... no... this is still allowing for a user/pass method.

USBIP(8) System Administration Utilities USBIP(8) NAME
usbipd - USB/IP server daemon SYNOPSIS
usbipd [options] DESCRIPTION
usbipd provides USB/IP clients access to exported USB devices. Devices have to explicitly be exported using usbip bind before usbipd makes them available to other hosts. The daemon accepts connections from USB/IP clients on TCP port 3240. The clients authorised to connect may be configured as documented in hosts_access(5). OPTIONS
-D, --daemon Run as a daemon process. -d, --debug Print debugging information. -v, --version Show version. LIMITATIONS
usbipd offers no authentication or authorization for USB/IP. Any USB/IP client running on an authorised host can connect and use exported devices. EXAMPLES
server:# modprobe usbip server:# usbipd -D - Start usbip daemon. server:# usbip list - List driver assignments for usb devices. server:# usbip bind -b 1-2 - Bind usbip-host.ko to the device of busid 1-2. - A usb device 1-2 is now exportable to other hosts! - Use 'usbip unbind -b 1-2' when you want to shutdown exporting and use the device locally.
