What platform are you migrating to? Linux by any chance?
If so, the account that was being migrated may have an account name that
is illegal under Linux.
Work around:
1. Create a UNIX group or User account.
2. Add the Account with the exact name as in Windows, then
map the user/group to the NT account
eg:
NT Domain Group = "Domain Frog Population"
Create UNIX group:
groupadd domfrogpop
Add NT Domain Group:
net groupmap add ntgroup="Domain Frog Population" \
unixgroup=domfrogpop type=d
Do this for every group and user name that can not be created under UNIX
using the NT name.
Finally, repeat the migration.
