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.
