GPO Password Policy is applied but not working

I am on a windows 2000 domain and have created a Password Policy GPO
specifying password length, complexity, etc. in a a separate OU
containing some of the machines in our domain. The gpo in enabled and
Authenticated users have the correct permission.

When I use rros I see that the policy has been applied to the machine.
I also see in local security policies on the machines that the policy
has been set. Unfortunately the policy does not seem to be working.
It seems that the old local security setting is what is being used.
Anyone have a suggestion? It would really be appreciated!!!
