Doesn't work for me on XP SP3 but I'm switching to CPAU anyhow.  Today, I
saw the error of my ways using /SAVECRED from a purely security perspective
in this posting:

Thanks for testing for me.

Subject: Re: RE: Runas - local account when joined to domain

Heh, no problem..  well, all confusion about terminology aside - I just
tested this on my Vista Business laptop which is joined to a domain.  If I
run the command the first time (/savecred, local account, etc) while on the
network, give it the password, I can then unplug my network cable and the
same command works without prompting for a password..

Correct.  Using /savecred with runas prompts for the password the first time
its run and then "caches" the password. Then it just runs without prompting
subsequent times. I think my use of the term "cache" was what was causing
confusion with AD cached credentials. My fault. :)
