Did you found already these?

I think so.

No. Both runs in same server by same session/login.

> Where do I have to create the users?

Normal way - passwd/shadow is needed in every application server. Best 
way is use of ldap authentication (openLDAP). But there are some heavy 
difficulties to use secure access for openLDAP. Read more here:

Use openLDAP (without secure access if it is okay with you) and NFS for 
home directories.

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuLTSP/LTSP-Cluster_NAT_OpenLDAP

You need NAT if you have two network cards.

You can put openLDAP and NFS (/home) in very same machine, called 
root-server in that howto. Application servers need just mount point for 
/home.

You are welcome.
