I haven't worked with a SBS server OS until now and I've read the millions of warnings about "It's not the same as Windows server XXXX don't go about doing things the same way!" So I really haven't touched the inner workings of the DC/exchange just setup WSUS and created some GPOs for MSI file deployment and added some RBLs for spam filtering but for whatever reason the internal company website no longer will allow you to reset your password. I'm not sure how I could go about troubleshooting this. Everytime you enter in your password old and new it tells you it did not meet the password requirements. Our requirments are as follows:
Minimum of 8 characters & it contains characters from three out of the following four categories:
1. Uppercase English characters (A through Z)
2. Lowercase English characters (a through z)
3. Base 10 digits (0 through 9)
4. Non-alphabetic characters (for example, !, $, #, %)
So I initially set everyone's password to company=-0 which meets 3 of the 4 requirements. If I try and reset a user account via the web interface from "company=-0" to "anotherword=-0" or even "Anotherword=-0" it fails stating I didn't meet the requirements.
How can I troubleshoot this? The event logs show no attempts and IIS logs are not even helpful.
