Hi Joe Thanks for the reply, just tested this myself and ADUC even allows creating more than 20char of samaccountname for groups...
Does anyone know how to make ADC puts more than 20char? As obviously for groups 20 is not the limit Thank you and have a splendid day!

My understanding is that the DS enforces a limit of 64 char for sAMAccountName for groups, but 20 for users. I know we have thousands of groups with sAMAccountName longer than 20. They still work and the DS doesn't balk. :) These are all created programmatically through tools though and are not created or modified with ADUC. There might be some behavior difference there.

That's on the target? Or that's in the source?
