articles</a>: Browsing Windows NT groups with ASP and ADSI</p>

<h1>Browsing Windows NT groups with ASP and ADSI</h1>

<h2>Introduction</h2>

<p>The ASP code described in this article will allow you to find a list of Windows NT
groups in a specific domain or on a specific computer, then view a list of users and
groups within that group.</p>

<h2>How it works</h2>

<p>The ASP code uses Microsoft’s Active Directory Service Interfaces (ADSI). ADSI is
a directory system that makes it straightforward to administer and obtain information from
a variety of data stores on the system (e.g. Exchange Server, Internet Information Server,
and Windows NT itself). ADSI can run on Windows 95, 98, NT 4.0 and Windows 2000. Due to
the lack of security features in Windows 95 and 98 it is advisable to not run ADSI
services on these operating systems. The examples described here have been tested with
Windows NT 4.0.</p>

<p>ADSI is particularly useful under Windows 2000, as it allows access to the Windows 2000
Active Directory. The Active Directory is one of the cornerstones of Windows 2000, so it
is worth getting to grips with. If you want to learn ADSI, there are a number of tutorials
listed at the bottom of this article.</p>

<p>In order to get the examples to work, you will need to install ADSI. The current
version (2.5) is a free download from Microsoft’s website (see links at the bottom of
this article).</p>

<h2>The code</h2>

<p>There are four parts to the example page, which should be saved as
UserGroupBrowser.asp.</p>

<p>The first part of the page should be added to above the opening <HTML> tag:</p>

<p><font color="#808080"><%<br>
Dim sCurrentGroup<br>
Dim sDomainName<br>
sCurrentGroup = Request.QueryString("Group")<br>
sDomainName = Request.QueryString("Domain")<br>
<br>
'Change the following line so that sDomainName is your machine name or domain name<br>
If sDomainName = "" Then sDomainName = "</font><font color="#FF0000">MYDOMAIN</font><font
color="#808080">"<br>
%></font><font color="#FFFF00"><br>
</font></p>

<p>Note that the 8th line of this code should be changed to replace MYDOMAIN with the name
of your Windows NT Domain (or your machine name).</p>

<p>The second piece of code should be placed in the <BODY> part of the ASP document.
It contains calls to the functions that display the groups within a domain and also the
users within a specific group:</p>

<p><font color="#808080"><P>Exploring the Domain <%=sDomainName%></P><br>
<form name="frmGroupSelector" action="UserGroupBrowser.asp"
method="GET"><br>
<input type="hidden" name="Domain"
value="<%=sDomainName%>"><br>
<%=ListGroups(sDomainName, sCurrentGroup, "submitFrm()")%><br>
</form><br>
<br>
<%<br>
If sCurrentGroup <> "" Then<br>
Response.Write ListUsers(sDomainName, sCurrentGroup)<br>
End if<br>
%></font><br>
</p>

<p>The third piece of code is a small piece of JavaScript containing a function to submit
the Group select list if a group has been selected:</p>

<p><font color="#808080"><script language="JavaScript"></script></font><br>
</p>

<p>Finally, there are two VBScript functions: ListGroups and ListUsers. The code for these
is shown below:</p>

<p><font color="#808080"><%<br>
</font><font color="#008000">Function to create a select list containing a list of groups
within a computer<br>
'or domain. Function must be supplied with three arguments:<br>
'sDomainName: The domain name or computer name<br>
'sSelectedGroup: The name of the group that should have the selected attribute<br>
'sOnChangeScript: The name of the JavaScript function that should be executed<br>
' when the onChange event is triggered for this select list</font><font color="#808080"><br>
Function ListGroups(sDomainName, sSelectedGroup, sOnChangeScript)<br>
<br>
Dim sSelectListHTML<br>
Dim sGroupName<br>
<br>
sSelectListHTML = "<select name=""Group""
id=""Group"" "<br>
sSelectListHTML = sSelectListHTML & "onChange=""" &
sOnChangeScript & """>" & vbCRLF<br>
sSelectListHTML = sSelectListHTML & "<option
value="""">---------------"<br>
sSelectListHTML = sSelectListHTML & "Select a group"<br>
sSelectListHTML = sSelectListHTML & "---------------</option>" &
vbCRLF<br>
<br>
Set Domain = GetObject("WinNT://" & sDomainName)<br>
<br>
For Each Member in Domain<br>
If Member.Class = "Group" Then<br>
sGroupName = null<br>
sGroupName = Member.Name<br>
<br>
If sGroupName = sSelectedGroup Then<br>
<br>
sSelectListHTML = sSelectListHTML & "<option selected value="""
& sGroupName & """>"<br>
sSelectListHTML = sSelectListHTML & sGroupName & "</option>" &
vbCRLF<br>
<br>
Else<br>
<br>
sSelectListHTML = sSelectListHTML & "<option value="""<br>
sSelectListHTML = sSelectListHTML & sGroupName & """>"

<br>
End If<br>
<br>
End if<br>
Next<br>
<br>
sSelectListHTML = sSelectListHTML + "</select>" & vbCRLF<br>
<br>
ListGroups = sSelectListHTML<br>
<br>
End Function<br>
%><br>
</font></p>

<p><font color="#808080"><%<br>
</font><font color="#008000">'Function to list the users and groups within a specific user

<br>
If Member.Class = "User" Then<br>
<br>
sUserList = sUserList & "<b>" & Member.Name &
"</b><br>"<br>
sUserList = sUserList & " Full Name: " & Member.FullName &
"<br>"<br>
sUserList = sUserList & " Description: " & Member.Description &
"<br>"<br>
sUserList = sUserList & " Account Disabled: " & Member.AccountDisabled
& "<br>"<br>
sUserList = sUserList & "<p>"<br>
<br>
ElseIf Member.Class = "Group" Then<br>
<br>
sUserList = sUserList & "<b><a

sUserList = sUserList & " Description: " & Member.Description &

sUserList = sUserList & "<p>"<br>
<br>
End If<br>
<br>
Next<br>
<br>
If sUserList = "" Then<br>
sUserList = "<p>This group does not contain any users</p>"<br>
End If<br>
<br>
ListUsers = sUserList<br>
<br>
End Function<br>
</font></p>

<p>The first function (ListGroups) will generate the HTML required for a select list
containing a list of all the groups within a specified Windows domain (or an individual
computer). It achieves this by first binding the Domain object to the Active Directory
object for the specified Windows domain or individual machine. It then enumerates the list
of members within the domain, and if the member is found to be a group it adds an OPTION
tag to the select list.</p>

<p>The second function (ListUsers) will display a list of users and groups within a
specific group [under Windows NT it is possible to make groups members of other groups,
such as adding Power Users to the Administrators group].</p>

<p>The ListUsers function will display a number of attributes of users it finds;
specifically their full name, description, and whether or not their account is disabled.
Further attributes can be obtained using ADSI - a full list is shown in Microsoft’s
ADSI documentation (link at the bottom of this article).</p>

<p>Note that <b>On Error Resume Next</b> should be used when using Active Directory,
because the ASP document will stop being processed if a certain attribute cannot be found.</p>
