I have a probelm with password policy. It looks like it desn't apply. All
other parts of policy apply without problem. This is domain computer policy
it applies to all domain computers, no exception. User policy part is
disbled. We do not have other computer policies in domain. This is not new
policy, it is used before and it worked. I noticed when user changed password
to something silly like 'asdf' in front of me. I did a test on my account and
you can put whatever you want, but it should be at least 8 characters long
with complexity level enabled and history of 12.

Any Idea?
