Click to expand...

On the Default Domain Policy:
Change the complexity requirements to disabled (not to "not defined"
otherwise it might use some default value) and if you want to use
short passwords also change the minimum password length to a low
value..

On the DC you changed the value run: GPUPDATE /FORCE... also wait for
replication to take place if you have more than one DC!

Changing the policies as mentioned above is not recommended in
production environments because it is then to easy when attacked

Cheers,
