Return all users who are present in a group - followup

[Iain]

All,

The code below returns the following error :

"There is no such object on the server."

string LDAPAddress = "LDAP://mydomain/CN=grouptosearchfor
members,dc=mydomain,DC=co,DC=uk";
DirectoryEntry mygroup = new DirectoryEntry(LDAPAddress);
string groupMembers = "";
foreach (object dn in mygroup.Properties["member"]) <---------here
{
// get names here...
}

Any suggestions/ideas would be great.

TIA
Ian

Instead of trying to specify the path the group (which appears to be wrong
here), why don't you use the DirectorySearcher to search for the group by CN
using the domain root as the path and then read the members from there?

I don't think that string would ever work; you'd need to include the OU
or CN of the container where the group resides.
