hi all,
Could someone help me with a script that did something like this: Query users in a OU and list out the users Display Names and all the groups that the user is Member of?

get-qaduser -includedproperties displayName,memberOf -searchroot 'ou=users,ou=location,dc=example,dc=com' -credential 'domain\admin' | select displayName,memberOf | ft -auto

I tested this out in my environment and found I needed my admin credentials (I don't run my desktop with domain admin credentials). If you are logged in as a user that has been delegated rights to see the memberof property or as a domain admin then you can skip the credential switch. Otherwise you will need to supply your admin credentials to see memberof.

Also, obviously, you need to change the searchroot parameter to fit your needs.

Oh I just realized a feature that I like over the MS AD module for PS. You don't have to supply the OU in distinguishedName format with Quest's tools it can be supplied in canonical format:

-searchroot 'example.com/location/users'

Which is much more convenient.

Thanks cameronove ... :-)

need some help here again.... when using the | ft -auto or any other format command I know of, the memberof Column always ends with ... at the end. I'm not able to see all the values. Some users are members of maybe 20 groups. I'm only seeing one or two before the ....

How do i get a list of all????

Well you could do something like:

Get-QADUser username -IncludedProperties memberof | select displayname -ExpandProperty memberof

great stuff....now we are getting som where.. :-) I'm doing:

get-qaduser -title 'title' -includedproperties displayName,memberOf -searchroot 'ou=location,ou=location
,dc=Name,dc=com' | select displayName -ExpandProperty memberof

It shows all the groups now but not the displayName. Any advise here???

Yeah that is a bit challenging.  I noticed that as well.  Here is a work around for display purposes.  It takes away the object but displays nicely.  If you wanted to pass the object further down the pipeline then this work around would be problematic, but it does display what you want...

thanks again cameronove..... :-)
