Unless something has changed in the Password Filter implementation lately, I believe that Computer password changes do not hit the PasswordFilter. At least, that routine did not get called when using the passfilt I got from MS a long time ago. I haven't used this lately and the behavior may have changed. And the same is true for TRUST password. I believe those call a different routine. I am not completely sure of the intricacies.
I would recommend that you get the sample passfilt from MS and work from that trying to figure out what's wrong with your implementation. It is possible, of course, that I have been snoozing and this has all changed while I wasn't looking.

Password filter DLL is working fine for user password change. But when I try to create a trust between NT and Windows 2003, it is not accepting any password combinations. I disable the custom password filter DLL, and then it is started accepting the trust passwords. We don’t have any code in the password filter DLL to check the trust password. Is it a normal behavior? I know trust is also calling LSA to check the password complexity. Do I need to include trust password checking code in the password filter DLL? Is there anything else I am missing in the Password Filter DLL? How about computer passwords? Any input would be greatly appreciated! |
