Active directory users and associated groups

[John]

Hi, can anyone please tell me (Given a group name) how I can retrieve just
those users associated with that group using Active Directory using LDAP??

I am using the code below with not much luck

DirectoryEntry entry = new DirectoryEntry("LDAP://" +
Domain,"LoginUser","Password");
DirectorySearcher Dsearch = new DirectorySearcher(entry);
Dsearch.Filter = "objectCategory =All users"; // All users is a group in AD
 

TIA
Mark

You mean retrieve all the users that are MEMBER of that group, right?

Basically, you need to bind to the group, and then insepect the
"member" property

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

foreach(string sUserName in deGroup.Properties["member"])
{
Console.WriteLine(sUserName);
}
