Does anyone know how long a system will keep the cached credentials for a
Domain account? I have been told that it is about 90 days (unless the user
logs onto the domain during that time), but it has been my experience that
there is no time limit. Any ideas?

Conn,

There is no default timeout or time constraint in Windows XP concerning
cached credentials. That said, there is a default limitation in the
system to remember only the last 10 logon attempts....this can, however,
be modified in the registry and made to a max value of 50.
