Absolutely 100% sure. Microsoft does have a solution (password filter),.
but you need to program it in C. Microsoft's other solution is to have
a separate domain.

That's a good point. I didn't now that you can't apply a password policy to
single users. Are you completely sure??? The only ways are those you
explained to me??
Then if so, i don't know why Microsoft has not solve this situation, because
not always you need to apply a policy to the entire domain. I our case, we
can't do that, we have special users that cannot be modified by GPO's, this
would cause some applications not to run.

Hello Leonel,
The Windows password policy applies to all domain users accounts and
cannot be linked to an OU. Your only options are to create another
domain for these users, write your own password filter, or purchase a
third-party product such as Password Policy Enforcer:

Hi everybody!
I'm using Windows 2003 sp1 to configure Group Policy for the first time.
What i'm trying to do is to enforce password policy through gpo rules only to
specific users in my domain. I do not want to apply that gpo to the entire
domain, so i've used the security filtering tab to select the security group
in the Active Directory through GPMC, also this GPO has been created in a OU
wich contains the user groups.
The problem is the GPO does not apply to the clients (XP sp2), and when i
ran the RSoP, i see my GPO in the deny GPO's with a value "empty" because of
the Security Filtering is denying the rule.
I have a lot of information of GPO's that i found over the internet and also
troubleshooting ways to solve the issue, but nothing works.
I will appreciate any help on this!!!
Thanks!
