Determining Users in an AD Group

From a command line (on the AD server) you can use this to get the members of a group:

  1: dsquery group -name "Group Account Name" | dsget group -members
Additionally a command line exe to get the groups for the logged in member too, something like this:
  1: My.User.InitializeWithWindowsUser()

  2: 

  3: Dim identity As System.Security.Principal.WindowsIdentity = TryCast(My.User.CurrentPrincipal.Identity, System.Security.Principal.WindowsIdentity)

  4: 

  5: Debug.WriteLine(identity.Name)

  6: 

  7: For Each group As System.Security.Principal.SecurityIdentifier In identity.Groups() 

  8:    Debug.WriteLine(group.Translate(GetType(System.Security.Principal.NTAccount)), "group") 

  9: Next

 10:
