I assume you are just trying to solve the "authenticate to laptop when not connected" problem. I usually just use pam_ccreds and nss_updatedb/nss_db for this. However, have you tried using *both* interval and retry in refreshAndPersist mode? I think it should work sufficiently (except for unnecessary network connection attempts).
