It doesn't make any difference if I run the above script or not. The 
creation of the machine trust account still fails. Interestingly, if I 
run manually:

useradd DKASAK$

I get the error:

useradd: invalid user name 'DKASAK$'

But if I user lowercase, it works. I wasn't aware of a restriction on 
creating uppercase usernames. Is this supposed to happen?
Anyone else know why my machine accounts aren't getting migrated?
Pretty please?
