First use /usr/sam/bin/samlog_viewer to view what you/SAM actually did. You may be luckly and the users files were not deleted by SAM. If their files still exist, rename their home directory to something else so that it is not overwritten when re-creating the user.

To create a user with specific UID and GID from the command line see "man useradd" .

And you do have backups no?
(restoring the home directory will give you clues on UID/GID...)
