check AD groups and

i'm dba , in our enviroment networkside don't install administrative tools on our computers.

but need check in ad, example see people in _dba group, , in proj_developers group. there easy way that, can query ad, think.

all can can use net group /domain group_name, see in group, there space in group name, , don't know syntax, makes work hard.

any easier way this? , used check group, member of group etc.

thanks

if group name has spaces, enclose in quotes. example:

net group /domain "test group"

if don't know dn of group, use dsquery retrieve dn group name , pipe dsget retrieve membership. example:

dsquery group -name "test group" | dsget group -members
