[itdiscuss] Active Directory Password Policy

[blloyd at buskercom.com]

No problem.  Either edit the Default Domain GPO and change the settings
under Windows Settings>Security Settings>Account Policies/Password
Policy, or add a GPO that does the same thing.  You have to set this at
the Domain level not in an OU within the domain.  That is a limitation
of Win2k3.

Thank you.  Still trying to figure out how to set the password policy in
Windows Server 2003 if anyone knows...

I know this might not apply to you specifically, but with anyone using
Windows Server 2008 you can take advantage of Password Settings Objects
(PSO). You apply them to AD groups and users instead of OU's with GPO's.

I'm sure this is easy for some of you, but I have never had to change
the password policy and I need to.  We are running with one Primary
Domain Controller, running Windows 2000 Server.
