Can You Select Which DCs Get Added as Logon Points?

When you activate Logon Discovery, it appears that all domain controllers must participate in the domain you activate as logon points (with the "SMSLOGON" share and files on the "NETLOGON" share). Do you have to activate all domain controllers, or can you activate only a select few?

You don't have a choice. All domain controllers in the domain your Site Server is installed in will become Logon Points. However you can be creative with the "NET Server" command to "hide" a domain controller from SMS by using:

"net config server /hidden:yes"

Be careful though as if the domain controller is providing authentication it could cause problems.
