Hi all,
sorry for resurrecting this very old thread, but I would like to know if 
the situation improved over time.

In short, can a remote samba+winbind server cache authentication when 
connectivity with the main domain controller goes down?

In past replies the list told me that, due to a bug, this was not 
working on winbind 3.6.x.
As a note, being an enterprise distribution (CentOS 6), I have no 
out-of-the-box access to samba/windbind 4.x release.

Thanks.
