Can someone tell me if it is possible to configure MS SQL
2000 to support the following password security
precautions for DBAs?
1. Enforce password change on initial login.
2. Enforce 90 da password change.
3. Enforce password complexity (i.e. password must be 8
chars. long, use of a special char, etc.)
4. Keep a minimum 5 password history.
5. Lock out an account after 3 bad logon attempts.

Or would the OS have to implement these password
restrictions?

Any information you provide would be most helpful and if
any these items are able to be implemented by SQL 2000
could you please point me in the direction of where I
could find out how to configure SQL to do so. Thank you.
