Just did that with
 
secedit /refreshpolicy machine_policy /enforce
secedit /refreshpolicy user_policy /enforce
 
but does not make a difference. I also reset the default domain GPO to
refresh every 5 minutes on the DCs. The wrong settings are still attached to
something.

That setting is not applied to the clients.
 
This is applied to the domain controllers, its them who manage domain
password. The only place they read password policyes is form the domain root
level, where you have the default domain policy.
 
Try to refresh the policy on the domain controllers.

We're dealing with a really weird GPO problem. The password policy got
changed in the default domain GPO. This was not supposed to happen and the
changes have been reversed due to problems with some clients and 3rd party
software.
 
However - even with forcing replication and forcing gpupdate on the clients,
numerous reboots - the settings still apply to the clients.
 
Any idea what is holding on to the wrong GPO settings and how that can be
cleared out?
 
Windows 2000 AD Domain - mixed mode.
