I believe I read on one of the blogs or various computer news sites (is there a difference anymore) that this was one of hundreds of new features they were looking at possibly implementing. Don't count the feature until we hit RC2 and then still don't bet the house on it. :)

I *believe* that setting different password policies on different OU’s may be a feature in Longhorn. Can’t remember where I heard this, I could of course be completely wrong…

Thanks,

 

Yeah I’m trying to set different password policies per domain groups…

Mike-

Its a common question. There is currently only one *domain* password policy supported per AD domain. It does not have to be set in the DDP but it does have to be set on a GPO that is linked to the domain (if you have more than one, then the highest in the list wins). So you can't create separate policies for different user groups if those users are domain accounts. What you can do is have separate account policies for local member server or workstation SAM-based accounts, but that isn't what you're asking, is it?

Sorry for the newbie question….

 

So is it true you can only apply an account policy, for example a password policy to change passwords every 90 days only to the default domain policy?

 

I need to change my policy setting per groups for password expiration, ex finance, HR, etc, for compliance.

I thought I could apply a password policy per OU for each group…

 

Am I wrong?

 

Thanks

Mike
