As far as I'm aware, admin and root are the only accounts that can be authenticated locally if remote admin auth is configured. The other users won't have a password defined and so couldn't be authenticated locally. I haven't tested this lately, but that's my understanding. If you do end up testing this, could you confirm or correct this?
