Some authentication scheme types support Password Policies, while others do not. You can view whether a particular type of authentication scheme supports Password Policies by opening the Authentication Scheme Properties dialog in the Policy Server User Interface. To view a particular authentication scheme type, select it from the drop-down list on the Scheme Common Setup group box and observe the Password Policies Enabled for this Authentication Scheme check box. If the authentication scheme does not support Password Policies, the check box description is dimmed and the check box is unavailable.
To view supported authentication scheme types and whether they support Password Policies without accessing the Policy Server User Interface, see the following table:
