Consider a Windows laptop that is a member of domain and that is plugged into a LAN that does not contain its domain controllers (e.g., at a LAN party, a friend's house, a customer site, etc.). In that case, I suspect Windows will try to make the RPC calls. What I'm not sure of is whether the RPC calls will fail quickly or timeout after ~60 seconds. I'm not able to test this, because I only have access to one LAN (the one where my domain controllers exist). -- Fran
