When SSMS starts up, it attempts to make connections to all the servers in the registered servers list.
When you are not using domain authentication, you end up with a pile of DCOM errors in your System error log.
When you have over 100 servers in your registered server list and non of them can be accessed using domain authentication this makes a mess of your system log, not to mention unnecessary network traffic.
Is there a way to prevent SSMS from attempting to connect to servers until it has been told to?
