So I do have an user on my laptop with same username as IPA user.
I've
noticed that after installing client, this existing user is still
being authenticated by it's original password and is with its original
UID.
What is the best procedure in such cases?
I've renamed the local user to "l<username>" and kept it as a
fallback/emergency user. My user in IPA is just "<username>" and I
normally log in with the IPA user. The users have different UIDs and
both users have sudo rights, so I can fix whatever is broken when
something isn't working.
It's somewhat unconvenient to rename the local user, but I'm quite happy
to have a fallback. After moving to IPA I've started adding that user
when installing a new system as the first user.
