Sorry... My post above is the xml result of one of the AD records. The site seems to have stripped the tags.

The query I'm using is:

LDAP://OU=groups,OU=NetworkLocation,DC=eu,DC=CompanyName,DC=com

My GroupTypes are all -2147483640, so from your edit above, I can assume that they are the security groups. I'm not getting any with other numbers?

This is one of the groups that is returned by my query:

<adspath>LDAP://CN=Adm-MRU-DistGroupManagers,OU=Groups,OU=Loc-Mauritius-XXXX,DC=eu,DC=mmmmmmmm,DC=com
<cn>Adm-MRU-DistGroupManagers
<description>ADS: Distribution Groups Managers

For example...

If I look at my Outlook address book, the distribution lists listed there are nothing like the lists returned by my lookup using:

LDAP://OU=groups,OU=loc-city-xxxx,DC=eu,DC=xxxxxxx,DC=com

If I replace "groups" with "Distribution Lists" then I get an error message "There is no such object on the server.

Do you know of any way I can find out what the correct object name I should be using?
I have successfully used "users" and "computers" for their respective lookups, but I can't find the correct one for distribution lists.
