This has mentioned several times on the list but one more
time...
Password policies are applied to the domain controllers
which update the domain NC head with the info. There are specific attributes on
the head that control password aging, length, lockout values, etc. You can do
anything you want to the user and they will be impacted by the account policies
because they all do their thing through the domain controllers.

Yes, the password policy will still apply to that user - it
applies to every object in the domain, regardless of block inheritance
settings.

Subject: [ActiveDir] Account policies and groupsIf a user is in an OU which has the block inheritance selected but is in member of group that's in a different OU and doesn’t have block inheritance applied, will the password policy for example still apply to that user?
