pg_dump and Users

Hey everyone,
 
    Just a quicky...
    I need to dump a database completely while a system is re-installed.. and then reload it afterwards.
    I'm planning on using
        pg_dump -C database > Flatfile
        pgsql -d database -f Flatfile
    But this doesn't account for the handling of users and user creation.
 
    Can anyone tell me how I should be doing this ?
 
    Cheers
