How do you get rid of the password complexity rules in Windows Server 2003. I have tried altering the policy on my user container (I disable the password copmlexity Field) yet when I create new users they still need to have a complex password assigned to them.

By default it is enabled on the default domain policy in computer configuration. Disable it there. I know setting it opposite on the ou "should" override but I have seen this.
Good luck

just redefine the password complexity on GPO it works... i think by default it want you to have atleast 6 or above char. just redefine it to 2 or 3..
