Can you only migrate computer objects to target for source with existing user/group accounts in the target

We were recently acquired by another company in which we need to move our resources "ONLY" to the new “target” domain.  Currently, ALL our users already have accounts in the target domain that were NOT migrated via Quest MMAD.  We want to see if it’s possible to move all workstations and servers to this new “target” domain WITHOUT a trust and map their current “source” user account to their “target” accounts so the resource manager can do the rest.  Basically, we need to migrate all computer objects to a new domain where the users were NOT migrated over but manually created prior:

Source UN format:   steve.smith

Target UN format:   smiths

 

Thanks and welcome any feedback or suggestions.

    1. Renaming of objects can be performed using an import file. The import file must be a Unicode text file (if ANSI or UTF-8, all but the first column will be ignored).Text entries should be TABseparated (delimited). The header is mandatory and should contain at least these two entries: SAMAccountNameSAMAccountName One object per line should be specified. The syntax of the import file would be:


    SAMAccountName SAMAccountName
    sourceuser1 targetuser1
    sourceuser2 targetuser2
    sourceuser3 targetuser3
    sourceuser4 targetuser4
