SYMPTOMS

After you add or remove a trusted domain, the domain logon list in the logon dialog box on a computer that is a member of the trusting domain may not reflect the change.

CAUSE

This behavior can be caused by either of the following conditions:
  • Setting the date of the member computer to a previous date.
  • Setting the date to a future date and logging off and on or locking the computer, and then setting the date back to the current date.

RESOLUTION

WARNING: If you use Registry Editor incorrectly, you may cause serious problems that may require you to reinstall your operating system. Microsoft cannot guarantee that you can solve problems that result from using Registry Editor incorrectly. Use Registry Editor at your own risk.
To resolve this issue, use Registry Editor (Regedt32.exe) to delete the DCache and DCacheUpdate values in the following registry key and then restart your computer:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon
