exporting Distribution group members from AD

cahmadh

How we can export the distribution group members in word or excel format from the active directory in windows 2003 server environment?

I have a distribution group name x and it is in "users" OU. The company domain name is mycompany.com.au

i try to google it and applied some solutions but none of those worked?

Any idea?

I'd use PowerShell with the Quest Cmdlets. The command would be something line this:

get-qadgroup groupname | get-qadgroupmember | export-csv C:\path\file.csv

You could also omit the export-csv and just pipe it into a text file.

I am trying to get this using the LDIFDE command but its no working.

I want to avoid any installation on my server.

dsquery group -name "x" | dsget group -members > C:\groupmembers.txt

Thank you undomiel, could you please let me know how i can get the email address of the members of that particular OU.

undomiel

dsquery group -name "x" | dsget group -members | dsget user -email > C:\groupmembersemail.txt

Take a look at dsget user /? for more options of what info you can get.
