https://bugzilla.mindrot.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1730

           Summary: With a radius server setup, sshd still requires a
                    local user in /etc/passwd
           Product: Portable OpenSSH
           Version: 5.4p1
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: PAM support
        AssignedTo: unassigned-bugs at mindrot.org
        ReportedBy: brett_sebastian2008 at yahoo.com


I've read the previous bug reports on this site regarding this issue. 
I haven't been able to make any of the workarounds work.  I was
wondering if this is fixed in the latest issue of ssh.

First off, how to I tell which version ssh/sshd I have?  /usr/bin/ssh
-v

sshd requires getpwnam() and friends to return sane values for
usernames that it receives. If you don't want to setup /etc/passwd then
you may need to investigate nss_radius or something similar.
