I did get one answer, but it was not what I was looking for.

Answer:
Yes..
User.IsInRole("\\DOMAIN\GROUP")

Subject: Roles in Windows Authentication

I tried to ask this on aspngsec and aspngfreeforall and got no answer. Now I
need to get this answered because the other list is not providing me with
valid answers.

Is it possible to retrieve the roles a user belongs to?
Using Windows Authentication.

So I take it you would like to iterate over the roles?

You cannot do it with WindowsPrincipal. You would have to do something
like the following:

1) Get a complete list of groups from the domain. Cache it in some way.
2) Check each item in the list (using User.IsInRole) to see if the user
is in the group and save that fact.

You could do this with a class the implements IPrincipal and replaces
the default WindowsPrincipal during authentication.

Enjoy

Thanks for your reply.

> 1) Get a complete list of groups from the domain. Cache it in some way.
How do I get this list?

Best regards
