Dear All,

My company is implementing Win2K AD Infrasture in
progress. During the group policy testing, we found that
Win2K "Minium password lengh" Group Policy is not working
even I have installed SP4. Anyone can help me!

Thanks a lot.

Where are you setting the policy? Where is the GPO you're using linked
to? Password policy, if you want it to affect domain user accounts, must
be set in a GPO linked to the domain. Linking it anywhere below the
domain will affect the accounts in the local SAM database of your domain
member computers, but will not affect domain accounts.
 
Dear Paul Adare,

Thanks for your reply, I really link the policy on the OU
level, I think this is the root cause of the problem. I
will try again on next Monday.

Thanks again,
Edmund
