Local (system) account creation

[Haydur]

Ok, so from what I've learnt it's not possible to create accounts via
pam_radius_auth if they don't exist on the system. How about this?

Is it possible to use pam_radius_auth only authentication with
"login", and if the user does not exist in the local password file, a
default dummy account is used?

How would I do that?

I have tried modifying the login PAM configuration file, but although
the authentication succeeds, the system gives me errors like "session
setup problem, abort" or "user not known to underlying authentication
module" and reloads the login application. How can I fix that?
