Hello all !

I tried to change the Default Domain Policy of my Windows 2003 domain.
I removed the "complex passwords", changed the minimal length for passwords,
etc..

When I check the changes with a user, I cannot change my password, even if I
respect all my settings.

Have you an idea ? A thing that I forget to check ?

My settings are :
Minimum password length = 5
Complexity Requirements = Disabled

A password I tried : desert >>> not able to change !

Thanks in advance for all ideas...
Sebastien
 
Did you use gpupdate or reboot to make sure the policy has changed? If you have more
than one GPO for the domain container, try making the change on the top GPO in the
list. Check Local Security Policy on a domain controller to see if the policy there
reflects your change and make sure that "block inheritance" is not enable on domain
controller container. --- Steve
