Fail to disable windows server 2008 password complexity

問題
-
The option is dim when I go to
1. Click Start > Run, type gpedit.msc > click OK
2. Computer Configuration > Windows Settings > Security Settings > Account Policies > Password Policy3. The option for disable "Password must meet complexity requirement" is dim
Please advise.
Thanks.

Dear Customer,
After reading your post, I still have a few questions not very clear. Please let me know some information as below:
1. Is this server a DC, member or standalone?
There are many causes why a policy is not applied, so I suggest you may refer to the following steps to narrow down the root cause of this issue:
1. Check the problematic client to see whether other policies in your domain have been applied. If the client is XP, you may run "rsop.msc" (without quotation marks) to check; if the client is Win2000 or XP, you may use GPRESULT tool. For more information, please refer to the following Microsoft Web site:

2. Check whether the policy has been applied on other client computers in the same office.
I appreciate your time and look forward to hearing from you.
Sincerely,
