You can replicate users and groups through the Security user interface (see http://dev.day.com/docs/en/cq/current/administering/security.html#Creating%20Users%20and%20Groups). Keep in mind that group memberships are stored as part of the group, so if you want to replicate a membership, you have to replicate the group *and* the user (the order doesn't matter).

Another option is to package the users and groups in the Author at /home/ and move it to your Publish instance.

I believe packaging the users will not Copy the ACL list, By doing package install you are just copying the Users/Groups but not the ACLs
