The quick answer is NO. The longer answer is that Win32::OLE can be used to query active directory for groups as well from the WinNT or LDAP interfaces.
The list archives have some good example code (searching on Universal group should reveal a few matches). Hey, look it's something I wrote.. :) http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Mail/Message/1521485 Steven -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of DePriest, Jason R.

Hello, I have a perl script that queries a primary domain controller for local and global groups. However, it also has the new-and-improved AD universal groups. Can Win32::AdminMisc::GetGroups get those, as well? Using this Win32::AdminMisc::GetGroups($pdc,GROUP_TYPE_UNIVERSAL,[EMAIL PROTECTED] st) Generates the following error: Argument "GROUP_TYPE_UNIVERSAL" isn't numeric in subroutine entry at regroup.pl line 83. I have tried replacing GROUP_TYPE_UNIVERSAL with numbers and come up with this analogy 0 -> error 1 -> GROUP_TYPE_LOCAL 2 -> GROUP_TYPE_GLOBAL 3 -> GROUP_TYPE_ALL 4 -> error 5 -> mildly unprintable characters with 'NetAdmin::' stuck at the end 6 -> mildly unprintable characters with 'NetAdmin::' stuck at the end 7 -> mildly unprintable characters with 'NetAdmin::' stuck at the end I stopped at that point. If it doesn't know about universal groups, can that be added? Thank you! Jason DePriest, GSEC, GCFW Systems and Applications Security Analyst E-Business Security Team ph.
