We also run NT4TSE SP6 with 20 character usernames.
The only issue we had with Dr. Watson  and long logon names was was Citrix
related.
Have you installed RM? Wich Metaframe SP Version do you run?
There was an issue with logon names longer than 16 chars with MFXP, this was
corrected in SP2 for MFXP NT4TSE:

66. This service pack addresses problems with the IMA
    Service crashing and/or database corruption when a
    user with a user name containing 16 or more characters
    logged on to a server. The database corruption was
    visible in reports generated by Resource Manager.

    User names looked like this:

    <First 16 characters of user name><domain name>

    For example: "john william smiUKDOMAIN"

    After applying this fix, the full 20 character names
    allowed by Windows 2000 are entered into the database
    correctly. No older data is altered or deleted.
