In my experience, the logon is protracted, but if the user had logged on and authenticated to the parent DC at least once (there may an expiration parameter here) before the parent DC goes down, the user will be able to log in.

Subject: [ActiveDir] Child domain DC

 

If the DC for a child domain went down, would a user from the child domain still be authenticated by the parent DC or are they dead in the water until the child DC came back?
