Hello,
I know %username% gives the user name in the command
prompt. Is there any way I can reach group name of a user
(each user is in a group)
Thanks,
Jim.
 
You asked for two different things, if I read this right. An answer to the
"each user in a group" is:

net localgroup "group name"

This is for local groups, obviously. :]

You can run:
net group "group name"
from a DC.

You can use global.exe from the W2K Resource Kit to list members of groups
on other machines or in the domain.

global "group name" nameOfDomainOr\\Server

Thanks Ray,
How can I figure out groupname if I know username? What
is the fastest and easiest way to do this in a command
prompt?
Thanks,
Jim.

Jim,
try showgrps. it should be in the resource kit.
syntax: showgrps [domain]\[user]
returns a lis of groups to which a user is a member

there is also showmbrs which shows the members of a group.

Hope this helps
Mark
