The server (SBS 2K3 sp1) was installed on July 1st.

I logged in today and checked both the computer mangent console and the
default domain GPO, both showed the same settings i.e., complex passwords, 90
day expiration, two passwords rememberd, 14 days between password change.
This is baffeling since it hasn't been a full ninty days since the server was
set up.

I'm hoping there is something that is patently obvious to someone out there
that I'm missing.

Than you yet again,
Chuck
