SYMPTOMS
After you unlock a workstation with the network disconnected, &quot;Access denied&quot; error messages or other program error messages may occur after about five minutes.



CAUSE
The security subsystem erroneously removes a cached security ID (SID) entry. Because the computer is disconnected from the network, the entry cannot be reloaded. This causes some security calls not to work.

STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article. This problem was first corrected in Windows 2000 Service Pack 2.
