I am using windows xp pro.
I have created a custom password filter.
I want windows checks password complexity requirement only using my custom
password filter, ignoring windows default password filter.

Is it possible ?

Thank in advance.

I enabled the password complexity requirements through :
local policy -> Account Policies -> Password Policy -> Password must meet
complexity requirements.

And enter the name of the dll (password filter) on the registry :
HKLM->System->CurrentControlSet->Control->LSA->Notification Packages

But when user change the password, windows still check the password to meet
the default password requirement, which is mix 3 of 4 categories
(uppercase,lowercase,digit,special characters).

Is there any work around to by pass / disable the default windows password
checking, so windows check the new entered password only with the password
filter listed on the Notification Packages.

Thanks.
