I make a guess: maybe you set your graphical login manager to make a 
remote login? I know similar windows from KDM. Search for a option to 
make a local login.

Is does not seem right for me to enter a server name in order to login 
locally.

Another question: can you login on local console? This ugly ;-) textual 
thing you can reach with Ctrl-Alt-F1 (usually Ctrl-Alt-F7 brings you back 
to the graphical console). If you can, there is nothing wrong with your 
account.
