I know that RODCs sound like a good idea, except for two things, they
were only really designed for a small site user base, but more
importantly, what happens if the site link goes down for any
considerable period ?

You also haven't told us what Linux distro you are using and how you
set up the RODC and fileserver, what is in their smb.conf files for
instance ?
