Hello Luiz,

The mimimum characters for password complexity are 7 not 3.

Hi Meinolf,

yes I set to 3 characters and the password doesn´t contain any
character of
the user´s name.
I tested removing the policy, disabling all choices, I mean, and the
password complexity is required yet.
Any clue?

Thanks, Meinolf.

Best Regards.

Hello Luiz,

Did you use the minimum amount of characters as listed there? Also
Passwords cannot contain the user's account name or parts of the
user's full name that exceed two consecutive characters.

Hi,

I need I help about the Password Complexity Requirements in Windows
Server
2008 Active Directory environment, If anyone can help me I
appreciate:
- I have installed and configured a Windows 2008 AD and I have
Windows
XP
with SP3 as workstations.
The Password Complexity Policy is enabled in Default Domain Policy
but
when
I try to change an user password, logged on the machine, the
messaging
telling me that the password typed doesn´t fit with the policy
appears
to me,
though I type a strong password (example HGCsg5nT).
I run the gpresult command and the default domain policy is being
applyed.
Anyone already see that problem?
Thanks.
Luiz
