cann't add users on my domain
|

| i have set up a domain at my home and i wanted to add some users
i went to active directory and then copied the administrator user and added the info
but when i click finish it tell me
windows cannot set the password for the user because:
the password does not meet the password policy requirements. check the minimum password length, password complexity, and password history requirements
that is on a windows 2003 server
thanks in advance | |

| The "Password must meet complexity requirements" option is enabled in the Default Domain Policy\Computer Configuration\Windows Settings\Account Policies\Password Policies
By default complexity requirements require the password to be at least 6 characters long with at least 3 of the following 4 types of characters being present:
Uppercase Letters (A,B,C...)
Lowercase Letters (a,b,c...)
Numbers (1,2,3...)
Symbols (!,@,#...)
