Setting password policy in Windows XP

T

Terry

Hello,
I'd like to set password policy( account lock out after 3
wrong attempt) in my workstation. When I open Account
lockout threshold under Account policies, the settings is
grayed out and I can not make anychanges. I am logging on
as administrator. Please help me where else should I make
changes as well.

Thank you,
Terry

If this is a domian computer [XP Pro only] then the policy is being overriden by
domain policy which will not allow you to change it. --- Steve
