Problem with GPO after install

[katem]

Hi

 

I've just installed LNM on a separate server, but it's now caused a problem with my existing GPOs. It is insisting that all passwords have to meet minimum complexity requirements, even though I have disabled all LNM GPOs and removed any links from from them to my current OU.

I have checked all my GPOs too and they all have the minimum complexity option disabled and min password char set at 1...

 

Can anyone help me shed some light on this please?!

Infact I'm already thinking of scrapping LNM and I've only had it installed half a day....

Ah i was thinking about using LNM over Ranger so i was hoping for a positive review. I might leave it now ;-)

Have you checked the default domain policy?

[katem]

Yes tried this but set to 1 character and the "Password must meet complexity requirements" is disabled.

 

This is causing a real headache as I cant change anyones password!

Sorted :biggrin: a quick gpedit.msc and found that the local policy had been changed.

 

TIP: be VERY careful when installing LNM as it plays with your policies!!

Thanks for the heads up, will remember that for the future.
