Hi,

I’d like to list the members of the local group “Administrators” and then filter out a group that I know exist on all machines and that shouldn’t be listed in the results.

Q:

members of local group “Administrators”

A: (for SERVER_A)

SERVER_A\Administrator

CORP\Domain Admins

CORP\Finance Admins

CORP\Finance Consultants

CORP\JohnB

CORP\SallyJ

A: (for SERVER_F)

SERVER_F\Administrator

CORP\Domain Admins

CORP\Marketing Admins

CORP\Reviewer Consultants

CORP\JohnB

CORP\TimL

CORP\PatricU

Is there a way where I can filter the result to only display users and groups from the CORP domain but to rule out Domain Admins (that I know exist on all my servers)?

I’ve tried

Q: members of local group “Administrators” whose (name of it “CORP\Domain Admins”)

…and various other questions, but I’m unable to filter the results.

I hope someone can point me in the right direction. Thanks!

You’re very close… first, you need to move your whose clause to filter on the members object instead of the local group object.

Q: members whose (name of it “CORP\Domain Admins”) of local group “Administrators”

Next, 'members of ’ returns a object. objects only have 1 property: SID. There is no ‘name’ property. Instead, you can cast a to a

Q: members whose (it as string “CORP\Domain Admins”) of local group “Administrators”

Finally, the ‘not equals’ operator in the Relevance language is !=

Q: members whose (it as string != “CORP\Domain Admins”) of local group “Administrators”

This is the same:

Q: members whose (it as string is not equal to “CORP\Domain Admins”) of local group “Administrators”
