After some hours of google i still did not find a solution for this question:
I'd like to enforce password complexity for users of a Win 7 home premium
client (and PW length in second step)
- There any many hints to use gpedit for win 7 - this does not cover Home edition.
- There are hints to use regkeys ... but
Password Policy security settings are not registry keys
based on MS (even if there are keys showing the value they don't influence client behaviour) -> see XLSX WindowsServer2008R2andWindows7GroupPolicySettings - Elevated
cmd
provides access to somenet accounts xxx
commands - but does not cover password complexity. Password length can be enforced withnet accounts /minpwlen
Any advice appreciated
