nmX.Memnoch Posted July 23, 2007 Share Posted July 23, 2007 (edited) I'm not sure if it's kept in the registry...but most of that can be taken care of with 'NET ACCOUNTS' and PASSPROP.EXE (not included).This command will take care of minimum password length, maximum password age, minimum password age and password history:NET ACCOUNTS /MINPWLEN:xx /MAXPWAGE:xx /MINPWAGE:xx /UNIQUEPW:xxUsing PASSPROP.EXE you can turn on complexity and set it so that the builtin admin account can be locked out from network access (based on the lockout policy...and you'll still be able to logon at the console with the builtin admin account).PASSPROP /COMPLEX /ADMINLOCKOUT Edited July 23, 2007 by nmX.Memnoch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fizban2 Posted July 23, 2007 Author Share Posted July 23, 2007 all the settings are actually set fine, just wwanted to find out if there were actual registry entries for them or if it was just settings in the security policy, thanks for the info though Memnoch!
