Ask windowsidentity IsInRole but about NOT current user

[Carome]

Hi

I need to ask if a user (I have login and password) belongs to a
particular group of Windows 2000 users. There are methods for doing
this but with the current user....

I have found some examples using impersonate method, but with this
restriction:

' This sample can be run only on Windows XP. The default Windows 2000
security policy
' prevents this sample from executing properly, and changing the
policy to allow
' proper execution presents a security risk.

Any other way of doing the same?

thanx in advance

You probably can do this using LDAP, see the DirectoryServices namespace.
