Enumerate what group the local user is a member of

[slundy]

I've seen tons of these for domains, but where I work we're on novell, so no domain to bind to, or query. Basically just need to find out if the logged on user is a part of the power users group, or administrators group. Those are the only two groups that are in use from an enterprise perspective. I've tried hacking up a domain script but since I'm a total n00b at this I just get frustrated and give up.

any help or guidance would be greatly appreicated.

Also, we're porting this to a comma delimited text file, but I noticed in a few others scripts that people we're porting theirs to excel spreadsheets. That's where ours will end up, so any help on that end would be helpful as well.

Ended up using this:

Set objNetwork = CreateObject("Wscript.Network")
strComputer = objNetwork.ComputerName
Set wshShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
strUser = wshShell.ExpandEnvironmentStrings("%USERNAME%")
Set colGroups = GetObject("WinNT://" & strComputer & "")
colGroups.Filter = Array("Group")

For Each objGroup In colGroups
For Each objUser in objGroup.Members
If objUser.name = strUser Then
Echo objGroup.Name
End If
Next
Next
