Getting Group Memberships for a User on an NT Server based Network

[tcorrigan]

Given a username I need a list of groups that the user belongs to. This is on a network managed by an NT Server set up as a primary domain controller.<br>
<br>
The function NetUserGetGroups does exactly what I want: given a PDC name and a user name it returns a list of groups that the user belongs to. (For details see &quot;Call LanMan Servics from a 32-bit Visual Basic Application&quot; on MSDN.) The fly in the ointment, of course, is that this only works if the code is executed on an NT or Win2K machine. It fails with the message &quot;Entry point not found&quot; when called from a Win95/98 machine.<br>
<br>
So the question is: How can I get this information from the PDC when I'm running on a Win95/98 machine?<br>

Trade the 9x boxes in for NT workstations?????<br>

Did you try to find out what &quot;Entry point not found&quot; means as an error message from Tech Net or MSDN or NT Server Resource Kit.<br>

&quot;entry point not found&quot; means that particular function is not defined in the DLL (NETAPI32.DLL, in this case). Also, upon carefully reading the MSDN documentation for NetUserGetGroups it very &quot;clearly&quot; says that the function is not supported under Win95/98. <br>
