Password change Interval

  • Thread starter Thread starter Guest
  • Start date Start date
You change the domain password policy in the following location

Active Directory Users and Computers
Right click on the domain name and select properties
Choose the Group Policy Tab
Either Edit the Default Domain Policy or create a new Domain Password
Policy at this location:

Computer Configuration\Windows Settings\Security Settings\Account
Policies\Password Policy\Maximum Password Age

Note that password settings are only effective at the domain level and not
in any Containers or OU's

Hope that helps
