Local User Account Creation

[Jerri]

Good afternoon.

I need to create several local accounts for contractors who are not in our AD. I've created these accounts, but when verifying logins they are not passing authentication.

I've tried deactivating the email validation prior to creating the accounts, and reactivating it, but this doesn't seem to work. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Jerri, 

Did you create a local account with default password and "password needs reset = true" ? Have you also created user names for all the accounts you created?
