two ways.
1. You can try DirectorySearch er
DirectorySearch er search = new DirectorySearch er(entry);
search.Properti esToLoad.Add("m emberOf");

2. You can try DirectoryEntry. Invoke methoud
DirectoryEntry obUser = new DirectoryEntry( res.Path);
object obGroups = obUser.Invoke(" Groups");
foreach (object ob in (IEnumerable)ob Groups)
{
DirectoryEntry obGpEntry = new DirectoryEntry( ob);
groups.Add(obGp Entry.Name);
}

Insepect the user's "memberOf" property

DirectoryEntry deUser = new DirectoryEntry( "LDAP://......");

foreach(string sGroupName in deUser.Properti es["memberOf"])
{
Console.WriteLi ne(sGroupName);
}

This is the easy way of doing it - it will *NOT* show you the user's
"primary group", nor any nested groups. For those you'd need to
inspect the user object's "tokenGroup s" attribute (which is a
collection of SID's), and then resolve those SIDs to group names.

Check out microsoft.publi c.adsi.general - there have been several
posts on how to read the full group membership by means of
"tokenGroup s".
