Thanks for sharing your insightful thoughts and suggestions on group nesting – very helpful, and appreciated indeed.

On a related note, we needed a quick and efficient way to enumerate nested security groups for security audits (i.e. find out which groups were nested in other groups.) So we asked our on-site MS consultant and he recommended using the Gold Finger from Paramount Defenses Inc.

Gold Finger pleasantly surprised us because not only was it endorsed by Microsoft but also 100% FREE and loaded with almost 250 useful Active Directory security, Exchange and ACL management reports. BTW, you can download it for free from http://goldfinger.paramountdefenses.com

Thought I’d share this with you incase it could help you too, especially if you have like on-demand reporting.

Thanks again, and looking forward to your next post.

Best wishes,
Jonathan

All the concepts about Groups are so much easier to understand with this post.

Thanks for share with us.
