copied!<p>If you're running on .NET 3.5 or newer, you can use a <code>PrincipalSearcher</code> and a "query-by-example" principal to do your searching:</p> <pre><code>// create your domain context PrincipalContext ctx = new PrincipalContext(ContextType.Domain); // define a "query-by-example" principal - here, we search for a GroupPrincipal GroupPrincipal qbeGroup = new GroupPrincipal(ctx); // create your principal searcher passing in the QBE principal PrincipalSearcher srch = new PrincipalSearcher(qbeGroup); // find all matches foreach(var found in srch.FindAll()) { GroupPrincipal foundGroup = found as GroupPrincipal; if(foundGroup != null) { // do whatever you need to do, e.g. put name into a list of strings or something } } </code></pre> <p>If you haven't already - absolutely read the MSDN article <a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/cc135979.aspx" rel="noreferrer">Managing Directory Security Principals in the .NET Framework 3.5</a> which shows nicely how to make the best use of the new features in <code>System.DirectoryServices.AccountManagement</code></p> <p>When you have a given group, you can easily get all its group members by using:</p> <pre><code>// find the group in question (or load it from e.g. your list) GroupPrincipal group = GroupPrincipal.FindByIdentity(ctx, "YourGroupNameHere"); // if found.... if (group != null) { // iterate over members foreach (Principal p in group.GetMembers()) { Console.WriteLine("{0}: {1}", p.StructuralObjectClass, p.DisplayName); // do whatever you need to do to those members } } </code></pre>
