I did not mean to give that impression, sorry.
I copied /etc/passwd, /etc/shadow, /etc/group, /etc/gshadow
I copied /home with rsync
I hope this is an answer and I am still interested in whatever solution
:-)

That would make the uids and gids the same but would not affext the
permissiond in the home directory. Did you copy the home directories
also?
I do not really remember. I think I just put then there with rsync, but it
could also be that I copied them with tar and then rsync, but wouldn't
that have the same result?
