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?
