I appreciate your responses. I guess "tricking the OS" was not the right
term. What I'm trying to find out is where to start on writing those
extensions. Does my policy have to check for OU membership? I guess I need
some help finding a starting point. Passfilt Pro is a good filter; however,
it offers only 4 password policies, but I'd like to have more...

Thanks,
