Re: Password policy



Hello TSAM,

It will be only applied if on domain level. On OU level the policy works if the clients are NOT connected to the domain. For different policies you need subdomains or server 2008.

Hello,

Can password policy policy be applied per OU? My understanding was
that password policies can only be set at the domain level and not at
OU level. But if GPO editor allows this, can we have seperate password
policy for OU's like one for HR, another for Legal etc and how
efficent are they operation wise?

Thanks
