You might want to just do that.
Be aware that if you recover passwd and groups after you install lots of stuff on your server, the ids of the backuped data might fight while the ids of already installed stuff are wrong. Better recover passwd and shadow and group right after the basic install, then install what is needed to make this machine the desired server and recover the data from backup. - Arnold
