You can set it up to 50, or set to 0 if you don't like it.


This can't possibly be accurate.  I've got people here with laptops that
haven't touched our network in months and reboot their machine every day.

Ok, I dug around in the Local Security policy and it doesn't appear (to me)
to be the number of login sessions to allow for a particular user, but the
number of users to remember.  Soooo, you can have 10 (the last 10) users
able to log in on your machine in case the DC is unavailable.

There is another option to 'require domain controller auth to unlock
workstation.  You might want to try that if you want to disable the feature.

I haven't tried that, but 10 is what Microsoft documentation says:

http://www.microsoft.com/resources/documentation/Windows/2000/server/reskit/en-us/Default.asp?url=/resources/documentation/Windows/2000/server/reskit/en-us/gp/579.asp

Number of previous logons to cache (in case domain controller is not available)

(...)

In this policy setting, a value of 0 disables logon caching. Any value above 50 will only cache 50 logon attempts. For servers, this policy is defined by default in Local Computer Policy and the default value is 10 logons.
