IOW that doesn't mean after 50 logons by the same user that they'll need to contact a DC. For example, I go from end of May until end of October every year with virtually no direct access to my DCs with no problems and that is certainly more than 50 logons. Do you really need to have that many logons cached on a single system? -- Paul Adare MVP - Identity Lifecycle Manager http://www.identit.ca Quote

(It's not a count of the number of logons a single account can do before they have to connect to the domain.) -- Shenan Stanley MS-MVP -- How To Ask Questions The Smart Way http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html Quote
Guest >-Arjun-> Posted April 27, 2009 Posted April 27, 2009 Thanks for your quick response. What IOW Means ? And i do agree with whatever you said, just tell me is it possible to increase logon count more than 50 counts.
