How to create a local user?

When creating creating a new user, it always creates it as a domain user.
How can we create a user as a local user instead of a domain user?

When performing the same action on my local DMA, it creates the user as a local user.

Is there a difference between creating a user on a local DMA vs a remote DMA?
Is a user created as a local user on your local DMA, but from the moment you create a user on a remote DMA as a domain user?
If so, how can we create a local user on a remote DMA?

My guess is that the DataMiner system you're working on is the Domain Controller itself, in which case any user created on there is automatically a domain user.

If so, I would say this is not a recommended configuration.

I’d even argue it’s quite dangerous to run DataMiner on the domain controller since DataMiner users can for example run code on the DC through automation scripts.
