[THIN] Re: Assistance requested...

:)

Yep, they start getting warning several days ahead of time, the normal users 
reads it and changes the password.  Just try to get a doctor to do 
that.....nah, they would rather hit the helpdesk and complain, not even 
realizing that it's their butts we're saving.....

to fix passwords....

I have been asked to get information from those in Healthcare IT, regarding 
your network password policies.  We have some discussions going on about are we 
overly compliant, under complaint, what are others doing?



What I am looking for is...



Your network user account (AD) password rules....

# of characters (min/max)

Password Age (Min/max)

Required characters (alpha/numeric/upper/lower/special/etc.)

Password History



Any assistance in this is greatly appreciated, as I need to put together a 
report of "our peers" for management.



Thanks!
