The password policy is a domain wide thing. You cant restrict it to certain OUs. Whatever you set it as is what it will be. Would be helpful to apply it to certain OUs, but password policies are there to protect the entire environment, so objecst that would not be using the same policy would be opening you up (that is why it is a domain wide thing)

One question Im not sure about is I have an OU that all Admin id's and service accounts reside in, We've applied block inheritance on this OU but the Default Domain Policy is still being applied and password restrictions are being enforced. This might be my mis-understanding but shouldn't block inheritance stop this from applying to the user 'ids in this OU?
