2144.0. "How to change cleanup processor schedule?" by SNOFS1::RASMUSSEN () Fri Jan 31 1997 01:54

      How can the credential cache cleanup process (sec_clientd?) under WinNT be
      configured to let expired credentials stay around longer (eg: 1 week)
      rather than the default that would seem to be less than 12 hours?
    
      Thanks
    
      Wayne

	Sec_clientd on WinNT( VMS as well, I think ) has a cleanup thread that wakes up every 15 minutes and cleans up files associated with the expired credentials. This value, 15 minutes, is a hard-coded default. Unfortunately there is no mechanism for the end-user to manipulate this value. The only way to delay the cleanup is if you change the credentials expiration time for the user to a longer interval. By default it is set to 10 hours, and that is why it appears that sec_clientd cleans up the files after 10 hours or so. I don't know if this is what you want. Regards, Kyungae
