Finding out the users in a group. VB.NET 2005

[Mike Grace]

I need to get a list of users that are in a group from within an
application.

Does anyone know how to do this and is it subject to the rights that the
currently logged on user will have?

Regards

Mike

This depends on what you mean. If you mean, can you query Active Directory
for a user's group membership, the answer is yes.

If you are talking custom groups/roles in an application, you will have to
roll that yourself.
