Re: Getting GROUPS from Active Directory by inputing an AD username

Just use plain WindowsAuthentication - you can get all groups from the WindowsIdentity that hangs off Context.User...

I used the WindowsTokenRoleProvider and i was able to input my
username and
i retrieved all the GROUPS i belong to on my PC.
I'm thinking of doing the same but against Active Directory.
How can i do the same against AD?
Will i have to use "AuthorizationStoreRoleProvider" and install Azman?
Or
iare they any other ways?
I have used ActiveDirectoryMembershipProvider before with my treeview
for
securitytimming can i use that?
Thanks in Advance
