if
you are talking the money the third party tool cost (don't know its
price)
but
implementing a child domain isn't free also, you would at least need 2 DCs and
you need to manage them, like backups, patching and all that other
stuff

I thought about that, but that does not prohibit you from
setting a password less than 15 characters. I thought about setting it
up to run on a changenotify event and then if the length was less than 15,
disable the account, but I think that is a bit harsh. I dont know of a
way of stopping the setting of a password less than 15 characters without a
actual subdomain. That PPE looks like it would do the trick, but I dont
think we are being given third party tools to implement this security
measure.

Would it be easier just to ask them to use 15 characters? Run
a small script to check on the numbers of characters after the passwords have
been changed. If under 15 than ask them to change it
again.

Just wanted to field this to see if it makes any sense to any of
you guys.
We are going to implement a mandatory 15 character password policy
for all of our administrator accounts. The only way that makes sense
is a subdomain with a separate password policy, since there is only one
per domain. I also know that I have to edit the minPwdLength
attribute and the uASCompat attribute to make this work on the
subdomain. Can anyone think of another method of doing
this?
Thanks,
