hi,

when you create a pam user on the GUI, that user isn't created automatically (that would give shell access for that user).
if you don't want to give shell access then a pve user should be fine.

to delete the nonexisting pam user you created, you can edit /etc/pve/user.cfg file and remove the line with that user.
