Explanation:
In Windows Server 2008 and later, you can use fine-grained password policies to specify multiple
password policies and apply different password restrictions and account lockout policies to different
sets of users within a single domain.
Note: In Microsoft Windows 2000 and Windows Server 2003 Active Directory domains, you could
apply only one password and account lockout policy, which is specified in the domain’s Default
Domain Policy, to all users in the domain. As a result, if you wanted different password and account
lockout settings for different sets of users, you had to either create a password filter or deploy
multiple domains. Both options were costly for different reasons.

    What a bitch of a question. It’s a Windows Server 2012R2 exam. The questions should pertain to configuring windows server 2012 only. If we run into a hurdle during production concerning an old 2003 server, we can figure it out ourselves. We shouldn’t be asked about features the older operating systems did or didn’t have.

If you’ve ever worked as a consultant, or whatever IT role have you, you’ll often find a combination of different DC versions or infrastructure setups in many companies. This is testing your knowledge of what needs to be done in those situations. Obviously, you lack these crucial experiences.
