I would like to know how long Windows 2k caches user credentials. In
particular, I have a web server connected through a rather slow pix-to-pix
VPN to a Win2k domain controller on the main LAN. The web application
server uses a domain user account to run the application. It's obvious that
it doesn't authenticate to the domain for each visit to the web application
server. I understand that the credentials are cached for a certain amount
of time to avoid this repeated round trip for each hit to the webserver.
My questions is--if my assumption is true--what is the default caching
period? Can I change it? How?
