Hi,
If the user is in nested groups for audience compilation, please use Universal Groups as a target for the audience.
Here are the Explanation of memberOf attritube from User Security Attributes (http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms677943.aspx)
memberOf
The memberOf attribute is a multi-valued attribute that contains groups of which the user is a direct member, depending on the domain controller (DC) from which this attribute is retrieved:
- At a DC for the domain that contains the user, memberOf for the user is complete with respect to membership for groups in that domain; however, memberOf does not contain the user's membership in domain local and global groups in other domains.
- At a GC server, memberOf for the user is complete with respect to all universal group memberships.
If both conditions are true for the DC, both sets of data are contained in memberOf.
Be aware that this attribute lists the groups that contain the user in their member attribute—it does not contain the recursive list of nested predecessors. For example, if user O is a member of group C and group B and group B were nested in group A, the memberOf attribute of user O would list group C and group B, but not group A.
This attribute is not stored—it is a computed back-link attribute.
Hope the information can be helpful.
