For example GROUP1 (a domain global group) has 3 members, one global group and 2 user accounts. When viewing this in ADUC it shows correctly, using PowerShell it shows correctly. When using the following: h:\Utilities>net groups GROUP1 /domain The request will be processed at a domain controller for domain contoso.com. Group name GROUP1 Comment Group for testing Members ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- User1 User2 The command completed successfully. It doesn't enumerate the name of the global group. the group it's not enumerating does have a space in the name. And I did find this: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/150295 <http://support.microsoft.com/kb/150295> It doesn't specifically say that it can't enumerate the name of a group member if it has a space in it. Can someone verify this for me?
