A. Windows refreshes the domain list whenever the machine is lockedfor more than two minutes (120 seconds). This can lead to a delay while it doesthis until the user gets control of the system again.
You can modify the amount of time it waits until refreshing by performing thefollowing:
Start the registry editor (regedit.exe)
Move to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftWindows NTCurrentVersionWinlogon
Double click on DcacheMinInterval (or if it does not exist create of type REG_DWORD)
Modify between 120-86400 seconds
Click OK
Close the registry editor
Restart the computer
