Umm, did you mean this to be a response to another question? ;-)

Well where is the policy linked and in what order? Check the attributes on
the domain NC head to see what settings are actually in effect.

The policy will apply to all accounts across the board unless you do
something else like setting individual accouts with non-expiring password.

As far as local accounts go you have more flexibility. You can take several
servers place them in an OU and set a password policy on that OU. That
policy will apply to all local accounts of the servers in that OU. You can
still set individual local accounts not to expire.

The policy will have no effect on domain users even if you place them in
that OU.

Hi,



I have deployed password policy on windows 2003 domain. Now my question is
will it be expire the domain admin account password also?



Will it be expire local administrator password also? Because there is no
local policy set.



I had a discussion with lot of people regarding this but everybody is not
sure whether it will apply this policy on Domain Admin/Local Administrator
account also or not or it will exclude domain administrator/local
administrator account from this policy.



Regards



Dhiraj Haritwal
