Yes, in W2k, passwords must contain elements from three of the four following types of characters:
-upper case letters
-lower case letters
-Westernized Arabic numerals
-Non-alphanumeric characters (special characters)
In you want to enforce password security policy even further, there are many third-party software that you may want to look at. One of them is passfiltpro ( I think they give a 2/3 weeks evaluation period.
Hope this helps,
