Hi!
I have a problem regarding on our server (Windows Server 2008 Enterprise Edition 64bit) specifically on local security policy . I don't know how to change the parameter, and seems like I need to reset the password after 42 days.
how I'm able to change the policy???

Thanks in advance.
 
If you go to Start--All Programs--Administrative tools--local security policy.
Is this what you are looking for?
 
I made our Server as a Domain COntroller... before, i am able to modify the local security policy but after I installed the Active Directory the Policy has been disable.
Do you know How I can able to modify the Policy?

Thank you.
 
Domain Controllers do not have a local security policy, just like they do not have local administrator accounts. Their policy settings are controlled by the AD policies.
