Powershell 2.0 Get users for a local group - powershell-2.0

Question

How can I get user list from a local group? I only have PS 2.0 and it does not have Get-ADGroup command.
I can get local groups:
$adsi = [ADSI]"WinNT://$env:COMPUTERNAME"
$groups = $adsi.Children | Where { $_.SchemaClassName -eq 'Group' }
$group | ft Name
What I need is to list all the members for each group.

Answer 1

You can try the following
$obj = [ADSI]"WinNT://$env:COMPUTERNAME"
$admingroup = $obj.Children | Where { $_.SchemaClassName -eq 'group'} | where {$_.name -eq 'Administrators'}
$admingroup.Invoke('Members') | % {$_.GetType().InvokeMember('Name', 'GetProperty', $null, $_, $null)}
$admingroup.Invoke('Members') | % {$_.GetType().InvokeMember('Name', 'GetProperty', $null, $_, $null)}
Here are the common properties
String :
Description, FullName, HomeDirectory, HomeDirDrive, Profile, LoginScript, ObjectSID
Integer :
UserFlags, PasswordExpired, PrimaryGroupID
Time :
PasswordAge
You'll find more in Microsoft documentation.

Answer 2

Try this
$computer = [ADSI]"WinNT://$env:COMPUTERNAME"
$computer.psbase.children | where { $_.psbase.schemaClassName -eq 'group' } | foreach {
write-host $_.name
write-host "------"
$group =[ADSI]$_.psbase.Path
$group.psbase.Invoke("Members") | foreach {$_.GetType().InvokeMember("Name", 'GetProperty', $null, $_, $null)}
write-host
}
This doesn't give the domain though, hence i had to look for other ways, like:
If you want to see members of a local group quickly:
PS C:\> net localgroup USERS
Alias name USERS
Comment Users are prevented from making accidental or intentional system-wide changes and can run most applications
Members
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NT AUTHORITY\Authenticated Users
NT AUTHORITY\INTERACTIVE
The command completed successfully.
Now you can manipulate this output a bit to get what you need:
$computer = [ADSI]"WinNT://$env:COMPUTERNAME"
$groups = $computer.psbase.children | where { $_.psbase.schemaClassName -eq 'group' } | select -ExpandProperty Name
Foreach($group in $groups)
{
write-host $group
write-host "------"
net localgroup $group | where {$_ -notmatch "command completed successfully"} | select -skip 6
Write-host
}
