While I don't use the managed enterprise solution, I have an IronKey
for personal use.  I have used it successfully on:
* WinXP
* Vista
* Win7
* Mac OSX
* Linux (RHEL 5.x)

The only one that required elevated privelege was the Linux one, and
that was because it hadn't been configured to auto-mount the new
partitions.
