NT4 Password Policy implementation

[Guest]

Hi

I am looking after a W2K Domain (no NT4 DC's) We have a couple of users who
insist on having their NT4 workstations. I know GPO's won't work and I have
to apply an ntconfig.pol file in the sysvol of my W2K DC, but I can't find
any setting to implement a password and lockout policy.

Could someone please help as I am pulling my hair out and it is not
attractive!

Thank you

Pauline

I'm assuming the NT workstations login to the domain.
Password and lockout policies can just be set in a GPO, as they are applied
to the domain controller and not the workstation.

Microsoft documentation states that as this is an NT Workstation the polices
will not be effective at all!
