Custom Query in AD

Hi

We're running AD 2008. I have the ADUC application open and want to run a query so that I can be returned all members of a group named "Marketing"

Does anyone know how I would go about doing this?

Neil Russell

If you have ADUC open then just click on the domain level, then click on the Find ICON and type in the name of the group.
When it finds the group, double click on the group and then on the properties page that that opens click on members.

Hi

Yep, but there are hundreds and I wanted to export this list to a CSV file of some sort?

Neil Russell

Ah why didnt you say :P

Get the Quest QAD Commadlets, They are free. ( http://www.quest.com/powershell/activeroles-server.aspx)

Then just use....

mkdir c:\temp
get-qadgroup | foreach-object {
get-qadgroupmember ($_) | export-csv "C:\temp\$($_.name).csv"
}

Why not use vb script to pull the information. No need to install anything...
Refer to this link: #30 Enumerate Group Membership to a CSV File

There must be an easy way to get this from ADUC without VB or installing anything? Surely it's just a simple LDAP query to get the members of Marketing?
