Thanks for the suggestion about purge, that removed them as you told me.

Regarding the "Authentication failure" error I'm afraid things haven't worked out.
I've changed the roundup's uid to avoid conflicts and chowned everything accordingly.

When booting the live cd it still shows that the "custom" user is not defined.
It still shows the "sudo: unknown user custom" message.
That's a bit weird because I changed the LIVEUSER config to point to "hernan", and later confirmed that the "hernan" entry
appears in /home/relinux/dummysys/etc/passwd and in /home/relinux/dummysys/etc/casper.conf

I'll try again by leaving LIVEUSER="custom" and adding the "custom" user
to the Ubuntu.

Anyway, I think there's a bug in the relinux script, that might be related or not to this problem.
Two lines above ". $WORKDIR/cleantmpusers" there's a grep that look for users ids from 599 to 999 to remove them later. I think  it's a bit too much.  Let me know if you want me to file a bug report.
