Hi, Cecil: some months ago I wrote something similar:

this was my experience during migration from non-Koha to Koha 3.2.
In Koha, manually add some auth records, at least one for each type of
auth you are going to import.
Look at created records in table auth_header. Use each
auth_header.marcxml as a model for a (perl) script to tail marcxml
records with your data.

A model for PERSO_NAME (replace *...* with your data) could be:

<record>
 <leader>00000nz  a2200133n  4500</leader>  <controlfield
tag="003">*YOUR LIBRARY CODE*</controlfield>  <controlfield
tag="005">*CURRENT TIMESTAMP like 20101125120000.0*</controlfield>
 <controlfield tag="008">*YYMMDD*n||a|nnnaabn          || aad
|d</controlfield>
 <datafield tag="040" ind1=" " ind2=" ">
   <subfield code="a">*YOUR LIBRARY CODE*</subfield>
   <subfield code="b">*YOUR LIBRARY LANGUAGE CODE*</subfield>
   <subfield code="c">*YOUR LIBRARY CODE*</subfield>  </datafield>
<datafield tag="100" ind1="0" ind2=" ">
   <subfield code="a">*SURNAME, NAME*</subfield>  </datafield>
<datafield tag="400" ind1="0" ind2=" ">
   <subfield code="a">*USED FOR/SEE FROM*</subfield>  </datafield>
<datafield tag="942" ind1=" " ind2=" ">
   <subfield code="a">PERSO_NAME</subfield>  </datafield> </record>

At begin of file insert:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<collection
   xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
   xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.loc.gov/MARC21/slim
http://www.loc.gov/standards/marcxml/schema/MARC21slim.xsd"
   xmlns="http://www.loc.gov/MARC21/slim">

and append at end of file

</collection> 

Then import the created xml file using 

bulkmarcimport.pl -a -m marcxml -file your_authorities.xml

and link them to your biblios with

link_bibs_to_authorities.pl
