Guest bondo Posted June 27, 2008 Posted June 27, 2008 We need to deploy a password policy for all users. We set up a dummy account that is required to change thier password on next logon, and every 45 days. We then set them up on the accounting/ billing server that is only a member server so they can access the applications. We tested the account for logging into the domain first and if they could access the desired apps. Not a problem. Then made the neccessary test changes. Now the dummy user can log into the domain, but not the application server. Password/user unknown error. All servers are 2003 Standard/R2, and all workstations are XP Pro. TIA and any further info I will provide Hope this is the correct forum!! Bill Bondo
Guest Meinolf Weber Posted June 28, 2008 Posted June 28, 2008 Re: Password Policy Hello bondo, If the server is member of the domain it will only use the policy set on the domain level, here you have to set the password policy of the domain, no other place are allowed or will be used. What do you mean with logon to the application server, do you mean logon locally or as domain user? What are your necessary test changes? If it works before you have to go step by step backwards to figure which one it is.
