Security Enhancements

Guest

I am trying to enhance my Security Policy in GPO and have added a minimum
password length of 10 characters, password history and password complexity as
requirements.

When I try to set the user accounts to create a new password the next time
they logon I am getting an error I can't find a solution to.

The error is :

"The following Active Directory error occurred: Unable to update the
password. The value provided for the new password does not meet the length,
complexity, or history requirement of the domain."

I'm not sure how the old passwords can meet the new standards with allowing
the user to change the password during logon.

Any suggestion would be appreciated.

The problem probably is in a new password which doesn't meet the
requirements of new policy
