By default, the operating system caches the verifier for each unique user's ten most recent valid logons. This value can be set to any value between 0 and 50. By default, all versions of the Windows operating system remember 10 cached logons, except Windows Server 2008 and later, which are set at 25. When you try to log on to a domain from a Windows-based client device, and a domain controller is unavailable, you do not receive an error message. Therefore, you may not notice that you logged on with cached domain credentials. You can set a notification of logon that uses cached domain credentials with the ReportDC registry entry.
