winbind authentication issues

I'm not really sure if this is the right place for this question, but hopefully someone can help me with it...

I have a fileserver that is a member of a corporate domain and I'm using winbind for authentication. I have gone into system-config-authentication and made sure that "Local authorization is sufficient for local users" is checked so that I can still login to the server when the domain controller is unavailable. We have been having issues with our domain controller the past few days and it appears that the system is still trying to authenticate users via winbind even though I specifically set it so it wouldn't do this. This issue is most noticeable when a user tries to login to the ftp server anonymously, or when I attempt to login as root...the login process just hangs for 30-60 seconds before it realizes that the domain controller is down and it goes forward with local authentication.

Can someone tell me how to fix this? Our server never goes down but the domain controller goes down on a pretty regular basis so this issue becomes very irritating.
