I've seen that to authenticate successfully, the login id has to be defined locally on client Linux machines.
In summary, is it mandatory to have the login id defined in the client linux machine ? other solutions ?
That's the way PAM works. There is apparently a way to define uid's && gid's via PAM, If you want centralized uid/gid and passwords (ala Active Directory), NIS or NSS might help. One interesting example is http://savannah.nongnu.org/projects/nss-mysql I don't think there's nss-radius though.
