Thanks Svyatoslav
What we are looking at is using PEAP-MS-CHAP V2 for wireless
authenication, and although we have a password policy in place (using
standard windows AD features) it still allows as user to have a non
secure password, such as P@ssw0rd.
Therefore we were going to us Computer only authentication for the
wireless network - however that makes the wireless network security as
is as good as the Computer password - hence the question, trying to
find how complex the Computer Passwords are etc.
So in summary, we want the password to be very complex!
Cheers
David

Since the password is not entered interactively it can be generated
randomly. Complexity is not an issue, therefore it's the full length (I
think 127 Unicode characters) password.
I'm just making an educated guess: this is what Windows does for smart card
only users.

Hello
Does anyone have any information on the Active Directory Computer
Account Password. I am looking for something that outlines the
complexity of this password (ie length, characters used etc)\
If it makes any difference, the clients are primarily Windows XP SP2,
and AD is Windows 2003 Native Mode.
Cheers
