I configured group policy on windows 2003 server so that password is atleast 7 characters, password age is 3 days and minimum age is 1 day. I did gpupdate/force. Now that when I test this policy, I am getting error "Your password must be at least 7 characters, cannot repeat any of your previous 0 passwords and must be at least 2 days old. Please type a different password. Type a password which meets these requirements in both text boxes." I tried 7 or more characters password with upper case/lower case and a number - although password complexity is not enabled. Still it does not let me change the password on the login screen. I can go into Computer Management and there I am able to change the password. Any suggestion - am I missing anything.....help ....please.....

Are you referring to local users or Domain Users? Computer management uses local security policies not the ones you create in the domain default policies So these 2 policies may be very different, check your local policies by opening MMC and add Policy Editor (Local policy) to the view Deli
