[CentOS] Moving the Home dir to new server

I have a new Centos installation that has an empty /home dir and there 
are no users...just root.  I want to move the home directory from 
another server to the new one.  At this time the old /home directory has 
been tarred with "-prf".  That will keep permissions which could be a 
problem.

Is there a simple way to move the /home directory?  And the non-system 
users in the password and group files?
