    Active Directory issues with policies

    Hello, I have a couple of Active Directory issues I would like help with:

    1. am running Active Directory 2008 on my network and I'm trying to deal with a password policy issue.

    I have a group policy object specific to one team area (i.e., IT) for users that affect that network, and it should inherit from the domain. I'm trying to make sure the child group inherits the domain password policy - specifically making sure the PW is no less than eight characters.

    I go and test this, and I'm able to make passwords with four or five characters. Somehow my password policy is not enforced. I've checked the "Enforced" tab, "Link Enabled" tab and even ran GPUpdate on the computers in question to make sure it works. Still nothing.

    2. On Active Directory, I have a runaway script on an old server that has been removed. Somehow, one of the policy settings tells clients to run this script from a server that no longer exists. I have found what the script is, but I have not been able to find what setting keeps asking my clients to run this "ghost script". How can I find it?

    Any suggestions would be useful! Thanks :D
