Active Directory and ColdFusion

Question

Hi,We use Active Directory and I want to setup a simple form where a user could create an account in AD.  The user would enter first name, last name, and create a password via a simple form. The problem I'm having specifically is we have a password policy setup via Active Directory/Windows so I'd like to somehow alert the user if the password they've entered doesn't meet the password policy defined in Active Directory.Any help appreciated on how to achieve this.-Westside

Step 1 - describe the policy on your form page to increase the liklihood of the user doing it correctly.

Step 2 - on your action page, test the password to ensure it meets the criteria. If it does, proceed, otherwise alert user.

Optional extra - test the password using javascript on your form page.
