How long do cached credentials last?



I'm looking around the KB, and all I see is that Windows caches the
credentials of the last 10 users who logged on. It doesn't say if they ever
expire. What if one of those users hasn't logged on to that workstation in
a year?

In the present case I don't want it to expire. I'm thinking about a laptop
that might be off the LAN for long periods, and I want the single user to
always have the same profile.
