That's not what impersonation is for. Impersonation is an OS thing which allows the server to drop privileges before executing any filesystem operations. You must have a real user on the system with all protocols except pserver (and even with pserver you must alias to one). pserver is a bit of an abberation in that it allows fake users... it also is very insecure in part because of this (secure user authentication is hard, and pserver doesn't do it correctly).
