Not exacty "stock" but then again I consider Support Tools as an
essential part of an installation :-)

Well I can't ship that with my product.

I scraped up this VBS script that does the trick.

I'm not sure whether this affects your product or not, but it may be worth considering nested groups, depending upon whether or not this affects what you're doing and it is worth mentioning for this reason.

The vbscript you've written won't tell you if a user is a member of the cute_pink_bunnies group which is a member of the Enterprise Admins group, for instance - whoami /groups will.

There's a script up on the oreilly script center that does enumerate nested groups, as well as a number of others online; you might be able to draw some inspiration from that/them:

Hope that helps..
