Posted October 28, 200717 yr Hi, I look after a range of application that run in both Win2000Server and WK3 Server (SP4+SP1 resp.) Have done succesfully for a a good few years now and thought that I knew my way around them quite well. These applications demand that the machine is not in a larger AD. They need to be standalone or in their own AD domain. Strange thing when I look at security settings I see that, for example, their maximum password age is 42 days and password complexity is enabled...this shows as both configured and effective settings...yet I've never had to change a password or use a particularly complex password. It's like the "effective setting" is not actually being enforced. This is one area that I'm weak in. Could someone give me a shove in the right direction to help me understand how this could be? Thanks, K
