  2. Click Start, point to Administrative Tools, and then click Group Policy Management.

  3. Expand the appropriate forest, expand Domains, and then click the appropriate domain.

  4. Double-click Default Domain Policy.

  5. Navigate to:

    Computer Configuration/Windows Settings/Security Settings/Account Policies/Password Policy

  6. Verify that the password you are entering conforms to this password policy.
