Hi,

I have a hardened windows 2000 server in my firm.As per
the password policy I had set the minimum password length
required as 8 char.After that I was unable to access the
server from windows 98 pc's.It asks for the password but
says Password incorrect try again and the account gets
locked out.When I chahed the password to the earlier 3
char one , it started working.pls help.As per the password
policy I need to keep 8 char for password length.
