I
have two Windows 2000 DC's with the Domain Controller Policy set with a
minimum password lenght of 8 characters.
Is there something I'm missing?
How are the users still allowed to enter blank passwords?
You're setting the password policy in the wrong place, it needs to be
set at the domain level, not at the domain controller level. You want
the Default Domain Policy GPO.
