I've seen roughly everything across the gambit. One of the following I've seen in place that I've seen that worked well was Passwords Remembered: 24 Max Age: 180 Min Age: 1 Min Length: 14 Complexity: Yes But keep in mind that moving people to 14 char passwords is a culture shift. This required training with the staff in learning Passphrases rather than cryptic short (8char) passwords which we've all been trained to use over the years. Usually people get the point when you explain that something like LindseyLohan=Nutz0 Is a legitimate password that would take 71 quadrillion years to crack today (http://howsecureismypassword.net).
