Getting username from AD

[jamesjames1]

Hi,

Is there a way to find out if a user is a member of a particular group. I need to move a computer object, based on last logged on user, to a specific OU. The OU is determined by group membership.

I have found some script which uses script for current logeed user but this is not good as I am reading usernames (DN's) from an Excel Spread sheet.

Any input would be gr8 -ta

Yes, this is easy to do. Take a look at my login script FAQ which does just what you need. faq329-5798.

In my login script I grab the current user name and then from that bind to the user ID to check group memberships. Reading from Excel would simply replace where I grab the user name. You could use all the same code to bind tot he user object and then check group memberships.

I hope you find this post helpful.

Regards,

Mark
