Security Group

[Dagoberto Aceves]

Could anybody here help me find a way to pull the security group name of
the current user?

I've been looking in System.Security.Principal

and have looked at Windows Indentity and such, but i can't seem to be
able to find the Security Group name.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks
Dago

Hi Dago,

Try This:

Private Function InGroup(ByVal grp As String) As Boolean
Dim id As WindowsIdentity
id = WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent()
Dim p As New WindowsPrincipal(id)
InGroup = p.IsInRole("YourDomainName\" + grp)
End Function
