    ... consider a Linked Server configured to connect to and issue queries against AD. Getting a user's group memberships, or a group's members list, is trivial using a Linked Server.

    Despite my deciding to deal with this situation in a different way, the Linked Server approach sounds interesting. As I mentioned in my first response, I did try this method, and created a Linked Server connection to our local domain controller mirror. However, all my attempts to execute queries against this connection came up dry. Do you know what privilege or such I would need to make this work?
