I need to generate a list for HR of all the groups that we have in the AD and the users who belong to each group. I tried using LDIF, but you get a whole bunch of other stuff that you don't need (i.e. OU structure etc)

I just want a clean list of groups within the AD and the members of each group. Is there any ap that I can get that can query the AD for this info?

 
Look at They have a free tool that will do exactly what you are looking for. If you want advanced features, you would have to pay for them. The free version has been enough for me in the past.

If you are looking for advanced reporting and SOX compliance, check out Quest software's compliance suite.
