It looks as if the password you're using does not meet the Account
Policy that you have defined for your domain.

This could be the password complexity, minimum password length, or even
password age.

You need to specify a strong password for the users that you are
importing into AD.

This would be assuming you are importing users?

The problem is that the system is attempting to create the user with no
password. In order to add the users you will have to relax the domain
password policy. You could use addusers.exe from the resource kit which will
not set all the attributes you are wanting, but allows importing passwords.
Then you can run the ldf file to modify the account settings.
