Hello all,

I'm pretty new to both Ubuntu and Ubuntu in a mix Windows environment. I have my Ubuntu boxes all authenticating successfully using my AD. What I am now trying to do and having problem with is the following: Trying to setup a local non AD user on the Ubuntu box and it's still trying to authenticate the user using windbind/AD. How can I configure my box to allow local NIX accounts to log in via SSH.

I am able to successfully create and add a password for the user using
useradd testuser
passwd testuser

when I try to log on I get to following errors:
Failed none for invalid user testuser
error: PAM: Authentication failure for illegal user testuser
Failed keyboard-interactive/pam for invalid user testuser

How can I allow a locally created account to logon and bypass windbind for authentication and user the local ubuntu authentication for SSH?

Thanks for the help in advance.
 
Can we see what PAM configuration (or other) changes you have made to allow AD authentication?
