I would like to modify the password complexity, i.e. with two or three capaital letters or 4 numbers and so on.
How could I do it in a GPO or in a standard GPO
The password complexity that you can enforce via a GPO (or locally) is that passwords must contain characters from at least three of the following classes:
•English upper case letters [A, B, C, ... Z]
•English lower case letters [a, b, c, ... z]
•Westernized Arabic numerals [0, 1, 2, ... 0]
•Nonalphanumeric characters such as punctuation symbols
If you want to specify your own complexity rules you either need to write your own pwdfilt.dll or perhaps get hold of one of the 3rd party tools that allow you to do this sort of thing such as SpecOps Password Policy
