I've used Passfilt Pro www.passfiltpro.com in the past and it worked well. They have a new multi-policy edition that will actually let you specify stricter policies for administrators and other sensitive accounts. The dictionary filtering is nice, too.

Hello group,

Does anyone have any experience creating custom password filters (passfilt.dll) for Windows? We want to enforce our own slightly different requirements when we set 'Password must meet complexity requirements'.

While I have read examples done at a local machine level, I am particularly interested in making sure it will work for the domain password policy. Also any real world experience or known issues doing this would be helpful.

Thanks.
