Remove user from group RRS feed

  • Question

  • Hello everyone,

    I need help with a simple powershell command

    I have a security group called TestGroup, with 100 member within. I need a command to remove 10 specific users from this group.

    I tried constructing the command myself but I got stuck

    Here is how far I got:

    dsquery group -name TestGroup | dsget group -members | dsrm 

    Any help will be greatly appreciated.

  • Thanks a LOT mohdazam89,

    I am using the 1st method, but I dont have the full DN of all members, as they are not in the same container.

    Is there a way where I can make the command fetch the full DN from the AD?
