Password complexity in Windows Server 2008 is grayed out

leave a comment »

I do not recommend this but I have seen a non-critical server where simplex passwords could be used (internal network/non-critical or non-sensitive data) – Resetting password complexity in Windows Server 2008 (R2).

If you need to disable password complexity in Windows Server 2008 and it is grayed out under the group policies -

  • Open the group policy management console and edit the GPO on domain level, if you haven’t created one you can use the one that is listed by default.
  • Find password complexity in the policies and change
  • Open a command prompt as an administrator
  • Type gpupdate /force and hit enter

Technology allows for you to search for any deposits you may have forgotten or refund checks that should have been returned to you.    You can look on your state’s website for information that is generally found under the state’s treasury department.  Link for Tennessee
