Hi,
In Windows Server 2008, we can use to use Group Policy Management Console (GPMC) to manage Group Policy. The GPMC lets administrators manage Group Policy for multiple domains and sites within one or more forests, all in a simplified user interface (UI) with drag-and-drop support. It’s a more convenience way for you to manage Group Policy in domain.
The feature is not installed with the operating system. To install it, please refer to the following article:

After installing the Group Policy Management feature in Windows Server 2008, you can open it from Administrative Tools or by running gpmc.msc command.

Bruce

You need to use GPMC which you will find after having added the Group Policy Management Feature on your Windows 2008 Server.

- Hello
If your W2k8 server is a domain controller, then you should have the Group Policy Management also installed by default. Go to Start, Administrative tools, Group Policy Management, right click on the default domain policy, computer configuration, policies, Windows Settings, Security Settings, Account policy, Password must meet complexity requirements
