Too many domains under the "LOG ON TO" box
I installed Active Directory and setup several domains and
subdomains. As users try to log in to a domain, they
complain that which domain they need to choose under
the "LOG ON TO" box to log in. Is there any way that I
can show only one domain under the "LOG ON TO" box in the
login screen?

Re: Too many domains under the "LOG ON TO" box
They can use there UPN suffix to logon such. username@domain. Then they
never have to worry about to select the right domain they are located in.

Re: Too many domains under the "LOG ON TO" box
I have 120 domains that appear in my log on box (all valid... and please don't ask.. this was a mess that I inherited.)

when they get to the log on box, they can start typing the netbios name of the domain. it will appear with out having to search for it.

Any child domains or trusted domains will all show up in the drop down box.
That's actually normal behavior. But Chris has a point if they use their
UPNs.
