UIDs and Word 2008

Okay- I have some users who are still using word 2008, they are networked users with their home directories mapped to a 2008 server. Whenever they try to save a document it tells them there "has been a network or file permissions error" and doesn't save the file.

I did some internet digging and found a slew of people saying that I should set a UID for them so they have access to save a temp version of the file.

My question is, when I set up the new UID is that basically one UID per machine or per network user? It would be substantially easier to make one UID per machine instead of having to go through each and every network account and do that.

We're running snow leopard machines, and they are running Word 2008.

Thanks
Robert.
