Off line authentication and Samba


Dear all,
I have finished a migration from AD to Samba 3.0.25b on a Centos5 x64 server.
So far, I have no major issue, instead of the following one:
No client can authenticate locally! By that I mean: When clients are connected to the company's network, authentication works fine. If I unplug the network cable, or I close the WiFi or I simply take the laptop to my home, I cannot authenticate using local cache!
All clients are WinXP+SP2 laptops that I have successfuly join into the domain.

Since I made no changes to WinXP clients (except of the new domain), I wonder if Samba misses that functionality, or if I should post that question to a Windows forum?

The smb.conf file is:
Code:
[global]
        dos charset = CP737
        workgroup = MYGROUP
        realm=MYGROUP
        netbios name = MYGROUPNS
        netbios aliases = SERVER1
        server string = Samba Server Version %v
        interfaces = eth0, lo
        bind interfaces only = Yes
        passdb backend = tdbsam:/etc/samba/passdb.tdb
        pam password change = Yes
        passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd '%u'
        username map = /etc/samba/smbusers
        unix password sync = Yes
        client NTLMv2 auth = Yes
        client lanman auth = No
        client plaintext auth = No
        log level = 2 passdb:5 auth:7 winbind:1
        smb ports = 445
        time server = Yes
        add user script = /usr/sbin/useradd -g users -s /bin/bash -m %u
        delete user script = /usr/sbin/userdel -rf %u
        add group script = /usr/sbin/groupadd -f %g
        add user to group script = /usr/sbin/usermod -G '%g' '%u'
        add machine script = /usr/sbin/useradd  -c Machine -d /var/lib/nobody -s /bin/false %m$
        logon path =
        logon drive = P:
        logon home = \\%N\%G
        domain logons = Yes
        os level = 64
        preferred master = Yes
        domain master = Yes
        dns proxy = No
        wins support = Yes
        ldap ssl = no
        cups options = raw
        veto files = /*.eml/*.nws/*.{*}/
        veto oplock files = /*.doc/*.xls/*.mdb/*.mpp/*.dwg
Thank you in advance
