    Hi Sukry,

    Altiris takes all account management from Windows operating systems.
    You can use a local or AD account on a Windows operating system.
    In other words, regarding the password configuration you inquired about, Altiris itself does not support it.
    However, all of these password configurations are in accordance with the local security policy or AD Group policy on the Windows operating system.

    However, if an account running Altiris Server Service is also applied to this local security or AD group policy, Symantec Installation Manager must reset the Altiris Server Service every 60 days.

    Thank you.
