Yet Another GUI tool for Windows Server 2008 fine-grained password management
Fine-grained password policies - described in a previous post - is a new feature in Windows Server 2008 that can be used to specify multiple password policies and apply different password restrictions and account lockout policies to different sets of users within a single domain. Password policies apply only to user objects (or inetOrgPerson objects if they are used instead of user objects) and global security groups. Fine-grained password policy cannot be applied to an organizational unit (OU) directly.
Well, SpecOps software has come out with yet another free GUI tool for managing these new "PSO" objects in AD.
Specops Password Policy Basic is used to configure fine-grained password policies in Windows Server 2008.
Specops Password Policy Basic is a feature limited and free version of Specops Password Policy.
