Changing the policy won't affect existing passwords that don't meet the new criteria.  
The next time users change their password the policy will be enforced.

Try this in your test environment first to check that it works the way you expect it 
to with your applications.

I need to implement a stronger password policy for
a large group of users in my AD, and run into the
infamous domainwide security policy problem.

What is the best way to do this, and still being
able to let these users have access to the file/print,
Ex2K mailboxes and other resources they use today?
