Explanation:

One PSO has a precedence value of 2 and the other PSO has a precedence value of 4. In this case, the PSO that
has the precedence value of 2 has a higher rank and, hence, is applied to the object.

User specific PSO’s have higher precedence and will win out against Domain PSO’s

Do not be fooled, User1 could have choosen a new password < 10 in length… The question does not say anything about that!

the dudes justification is wrong. PSO5 could have had a precedence of 100. it would still apply.

“when you apply pso’s to the user and group that the user belongs to the group based pso will be ignored and only the pso that applies to the users account will be checked for precedence”
