It took me some time to find out how to do this. I wanted to achieve the following (on all domain computers):
If you did not notice, the network logo/icon and the active network name is custom.
It can be done via Group Policy – Computer Configuration\Policies\Windows Settings\Security Settings\Network List Manager Policies. In my case I’ve edited the default domain policy so it will apply to all domain computers. Pictures are self explanatory.
Of course you will need Windows 7 or Vista on the enduser workstations.
