ID: Q163710

The information in this article applies to:

SYMPTOMS

Global.exe, a tool from the Windows NT 4.0 Server Resource Kit, is designed to list members from specified domain global groups. For example, the command GLOBAL "DOMAIN ADMINS" NEWYORK should list the users in the global group called DOMAIN ADMINS on the domain NEWYORK. The command may not return a complete list of users. When this problem occurs, typically, only one or two users from the group are listed. This is true whether the command is run on a domain controller or remotely from a Windows NT 4.0 workstation or member server.


RESOLUTION

NOTE: Global.exe did not ship in the first Windows NT 4.0 Server Resource Kit release; however, it became available for the Intel x86 at the following ftp address:

ftp://ftp.microsoft.com/bussys/winnt/winnt-public/reskit/nt40/i386
This issue has only been seen with an earlier version of Global.exe posted on the FTP site.

This issue has been resolved in the latest version of Global.exe and can be obtained at the FTP location listed above or from the Resource Kit Supplement One or Two.
