AD and Netware group membership

Sorry if this is considered OT
If a user has been made a member of a group via his/her AD account
i.e. Local Users and Groups \ Groups \ Debugger Users
Then they log on using Novell Workstation Manager client ver
4.90.0.020040617
Will they still be a member of the Debuggers group
Both AD and Novell accounts have the same username and passwd
My only reponses so far revolve around "might do but wouldn't bet on
it "
Is there a way of displaying for a user logged on which groups he/she
is a member of, bit like the 'groups' Unix command

TIA
Paul

In a command prompt, type "whoami /?" (no quotes).

Paul,

Yes, the user will remain a member of the group but only for windows
resources. If you have a Novell group by the same name, you'll have to
manager permissions separately -- unless you are using something like
DirXML.

And Lanwench is correct, whoami /groups will show you the windows groups
that your associated SID is a member of.

Paul,

Yes, you can login. As long as you have the accounts in each Directory
(AD and NDS/eDir), the adding of Groups in Novell isn't an issue at all.

If you want to synchronize accounts, passwords, etc., then yes, DirXML
(now IDM2 - Identity Management v2), will work with Novell, Microsoft,
Oracle/Peoplesoft, etc.
