Does anyone have data or tools for modifying the PASSFILT.DLL to ensure
passwords use all 4 character sets vice 3?  New requirements at work
require this to be enforced.

Thanks

You may find a commercial application such as Passfilt Pro or Password Bouncer 
to interesting products.  As for editing passfilt.dll, Microsoft has a series 
of reference material and sample code is included in the Platform SDK.  Some 
starting points:

By the way, are you in either Norfolk or San Diego?
