Dictionary Rule Not Working

I have installed Password Policy Manager on all DCs and I need to test against words we have added to the Dictionary file.  I have added the words to all DCs txt files and I am still able to use the words I have added to the files.  We are only using the Dictionary Rule and I have Checked "Enable dictionary lookup to reject passwords that contain: A complete word from the dictionary".  But like I said its not working, I have a test account I am using and it part of the correct groups I have setup on the PP server. 

 

What else do I need to do?  I have checked the encoding with Notepad ++ and the are set to USC-2 LE BOM and I am lost.  I am not sure if it should be this hard, maybe I am wrong.

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thank you,

Wade

  • I'm using 5.7.1, I had a policy configured, created the QPMDictionary.txt file so the option to edit the dictionary file was in the Policy editor, but every password failed. I've removed the policy and created a new one, but the option to edit the file no longer appears.

    The dictionary file is placed in \\domain\SYSVOL\domain\31ef....\ and is in UCS-2 LE BOM encoding.
