Querying AD for Group Members

[news.comcast.giganews.com]

The quickest way would be to set up a vb script. There are examples of how
to do this on Technet.

Hey, does anyone know how to export a list of members of a group? I tried

setting up a query in AD to search for User\Group Membership\Starts
with\name of group. That didn't give any results. Does anyone have any
ideas? Thanks.

I was actually able to figure it out after playing with it. I still searched in Users\Group Membership, but I had to select "Is (exactly)", and use the full DN for the group...searching for just the group display name wasn't enough.

LDIFDE -r objectCategory=group -l member -f group-members.ldf will dump all
groups with all members.
LDIFDE -r "(&(objectCategory=person)(objectClass=user))" -l memberOf -f
user-memberOf.ldf will dump all user's group memberships.
LDIFDE -r name=<samaccountname> -l member,memberOf -f temp.ldf will dump an
object's member/memberOf. The samaccountname is the name of the object,
whether it is a group or a user account.
