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). I would not remove up to date status of the System from admin console afer logged in but only the unpleasant message to all users/clients or possible attacker. Thanks ...

Try this

web.conf

[settings]
updateCheckerBaseURL = 0

Setting updateCheckerBaseURL to 0 will stop the SplunkWeb from pinging Splunk.com for new versions of itself.

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.
