How are you guys checking password length after the fact?

I agree to Za,

 

But adjust the script so that it automatically locks the account should it not be 15 characters long – then they have to change it.

 

Just and idea from a newbie.

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,
