Group Policy does not apply

[Guest D.Forde]

I have 1 domain and no OU's. I have used GPO and have created a policy that

set's a min password length & enables complexity. I have setup a filter to

assign it to a single user (for testing reasons). I perform GPUPDATE \FORCE

and the event viewer shows it completed. The problem is when I log onto a pc

with the user profile I defined in the GPO filter the passwords rules are not

assigned, and they can change their pw to anything they want. I even tried

rebooting the PC but that didn't help.

You can apply GPO's to Sites, Domains and OU's. You have the default

OU's if you have a AD Domain. Where exactly have you applied the

Policy that is not working.

I have applied it to the domain.
