    Specifically, what is the name of the NTLM machine account object you are selecting in the iApp?

Aha! Generally, BIG-IP won't let you create objects with spaces or special characters in the name, however the NTLM machine account seems to not have any name validation. I just tested and was able to create accounts with all kinds of forbidden characters in the name. Some of them work with the iApp, but most don't. For now, you should be able to work around this by using a machine account name with only alphanumeric characters and underscores. We will get the deployment guide updated with this information and file a bug against the behavior. Thanks for bringing it to our attention!
