Use the IsNTGroupMember method to discover access rights for a Windows NT user when login access is granted to Windows NT group accounts.
When a Windows NT security account is granted or denied access to a SQL Server installation, an entry exists in syslogins. The SQL-DMO Logins collection will expose a member referencing the security account. When a syslogins record, or Login object, references a Windows NT group account, individual records and objects are not created referencing group members.
HRESULT IsNTGroupMember(SQLDMO_LPCSTR NTGroup,
SQLDMO_LPCSTR NTUser, LPBOOL pRetVal);
