Install Password Policy Enforcer for Evaluation

The evaluation installation uses the standard installation packages:

• Server Installation: install on each server and domain controller in the domain you are evaluating. You can install manually using the procedure in Install Password Policy Enforcer on a Server or automatically with Install with Group Policy Management procedure. Installing Password Policy Enforcer does not extend the Active Directory schema. Be sure and install the Configuration Console feature on at least one server.
• Client Installation: install on each workstation you are evaluating. The Password Policy Client is an optional Password Policy Enforcer component to help users choose compliant passwords. Follow the Install Password Policy Enforcer Client procedure, or Install with Group Policy Management.

You may need to create a firewall port exception on the domain controllers if you are evaluating the Password Policy Client on a domain with client computers. See the Password Policy Client topic for additional information.
