Hi All,

I've rolled out a new 2007 server and wanted to let people be able to change
their password from within OWA. I had changed the group policy to allow as
few as 3 characters, and in fact,was able to change it from a complex p/w to
a 3 character p/w to test the policy. I was able to log on once and change a
password. When I logged in again and tried to change it (even to a complex
one) , I recieved a banner saying the password does not meet the complexity
requirements. Now, no one is able to change their password and they all get
the banner about complexity requirements. If I go into AD User&Computers, I
can reset their password to as little as 3 characters. When I check the
local security policy, the settings are those defined in Group Policy.

Doesn't sound like an OWA problem at the moment.
What happens when you sit on the network and try to change passwords?
Remember that there is a setting about the interval between password
changes.
