I've been looking for some tips to remove notification message to newest version of Splunk at the logon page but did not found anybody wrote something about to the newst versions of Splunk (6.4).

Try this

web.conf

[settings]
updateCheckerBaseURL = 0

I will try and let u now about general result of this operation (already described for other previous version of Splunk). But this way I suppose I will stop all system detection of new version not only logon page notification. At this point I think mabe it would be the only solution. Thaks a lot.
