Microsoft: Fine Grain Password Policy Tool

With Windows Server 2008, administrators can now apply password policies at layers lower than “the domain”. These “fine-grained password policies” allow for applying different restrictions for password and account lockout policies for different users in a domain.

Christoffer Andersson developed the Fine-Grained Password Policy Tool which extends the capabilities of the GPMC and adds PowerShell scripting capabilities for easy administration of these new policies.

I helped make the Active Directory Domain Services API wrapper as well as deployment project compliant with the 64-bit Windows Server platform. Björn Österman also contributed to the development of the application.
