Hi Martin,
Its been a while since I did it, but I would say you need to:
- first create the directories in home0.
- Then I recall something about adding the groups in lwat before
creating the users.
- You will encounter a problem removing users from lwat - you won't be
able to recreate them with  the same names - the personal group will
fail to be created.
Here is the fix for that:
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.skolelinux.devel/21583/match=delete+group

Although if you have imported a lot of users already, you might want
to start afresh.

hope it works!
