It is certainly likely that any entries in the cache will be stale; when connectivity is restored and expiration is re-enabled the cached entries will probably be immediately removed. While it will be no problem to retrieve the entries again since the network is available, the concern is that only a subset of the originally cached entries will be retrieved through normal user activity, but the entire set needs to be preserved in anticipation of the next disconnect event. -- -- Howard Chu CTO, Symas Corp. http://www.symas.com Director, Highland Sun http://highlandsun.com/hyc/ Chief Architect, OpenLDAP http://www.openldap.org/project/
