Thanks for answer. But, this solution described here for windows 2000 server. Windows server 2003/2008 can not include %SystemRoot%\System32\Config\Netlogon.ftl file. Surely there must be a solution :(Bugra Keskin

Hello Bugra, Please refer to the following articles: Trusted Domains Do Not Appear in the Available List for Domain Logon or Setting Security Permissions http://support.microsoft.com/kb/310611 How can I use Group Policy to hide the domain drop down list on the Windows Logon dialog box? http://www.windowsitpro.com/article/domains2/how-can-i-use-group-policy-to-hide-the-domain-drop-down-list-on-the-windows-logon-dialog-box-.aspx Brent Hu,Please remember to click Mark as Answer on the post that helps you, and to click Unmark as Answer if a marked post does not actually answer your question.

Hi, It seems that if you have tried all of the possible answers in the thread posted by Rajesh, http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/winserverDS/thread/c99f881e-9f9b-421e-a1ad-2e1a2ee46cb0 then it will not be possible to hide individual logon domains. You can however hide the domain box using this procedure, http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/winserverDS/thread/9f607914-9be9-4ecf-85fa-da3d33f79232 -- Mike Burr

Hi Mike, thanks for reply I just want to hide one domain. There are all domains are hidden. Is this possible ? thanks Bugra Keskin

Hello Bugra, You want to achieve are actually two different things. One is hiding the trusted domain name from the logon window; the other is to hiding the trusted domain name from networking browsing. The latter is related to browsing service. Every time a Domain Master Browser (DMB) reboots, it will send out a "r_WinsGetDbRecsByName" call to its assigned Windows Internet Naming Service (WINS) server to pull all <1B> records in the WINS database. These records represent all other DMBs, which will enable the local DMB to discover all other domains in the enterprise. To view computers in another domain, the following criteria should be meet: • The DMB must be able to resolve 1B record for other domains in WINS or a machine belonging to the remote domain must be present on the local subnet in order to be able to see the domain in list of Windows networks. • The browsing client must be able to connect to remote domain DMB via UDP 137/138. For more information about domain browsing, please refer to the following Microsoft Knowledge Base article: 150800 Domain Browsing with TCP/IP and LMHOSTS Files http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;150800 There is no simple way to hide only one particular domain: 1. If there are computers from another domain is present on the local subnet, the browsing mechanism will enable clients to view the computers in other domains unless you can disable the Browsing service on the computers from another domain. 2. If there are no computers from another domain is present on the local subnet and you are using WINS to achieve multi-domain browsing, the domain will be listed unless the 1B record of the partner domain is not listed on the WINS server. As the partner domain PDC may automatically register 1B record to WINS server if it is configured, you will need to set the partner domain PDC to not use WINS. This may interfere the network browsing of the partner domain.

Hi , I have one suggestion but havent tested on trusts scenario as above You can try tweaking the below registry HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanServer\Parameters create a dword value as hidden , once done the server will stop sending the announcements.
