I was too lazy to tell the long story that made me speculate about TGTs,
so I'll try to explain the reason for asking:

We have 2 W2K3 forests with Kerberos transitive trust.

Forest corp.com has 3 child domains respectively:
emea.company.com
amer.company.com
ap.company.com

Second forest (ad.devision.company.com) has no children.
We have users migrating from NT domains to one of the corp AD child
domains (emea\amer\ap).

After the migration, when users logon to XP computers in
ad.division.company.com domain with EMEA\username cached credentials and
than reconnect to the network, sometimes (after they work for a while)
they get a popup in system tray saying something like "XP needs your
credentials". 

Usually this would be caused by changing the user password from another
machine or account lockout replicated from another DC, but in our case
this is the only machine the user logs on to and there are no account
lockouts.
When the same user logs on with UPN ([EMAIL PROTECTED]), we have
not yet seen this to repeat itself.
So I was wondering whether UPN logons enable caching of TGTs and
sAMAccountName logons are different in some way from UPN logons.

Hope I managed to be clear enough ;)

Cheers,
Guy
