Setup user local

Login

login as pi, password raspberry - password may have changed

Add a user called local, this leaves the pi user as is. This can save reformatting and reinstall when the Pi is to be reused.

add a user called local

sudo adduser local
sudo usermod -a --groups adm,cdrom,sudo,audio,video,plugdev,games,users,netdev,input,spi,gpio,i2c,dialout local 

switch user to local, and ensure groups are OK, and network is running

su - local
groups
ifconfig

Note the inet address.

Now it is possible to login (as local) from network.
