Hi fellow Poshers,

I have been looking all over the InterTubes for a way to adjust this code to return the domain for the members within the local admins group.

```
$group =[ADSI]"WinNT://$computer/Administrators" 
$members = @($group.psbase.Invoke('Members'))
$LocalAdmins = $members | ForEach-Object {$_.GetType().InvokeMember('Name', 'GetProperty', $null, $_, $null) }
```

Running the above code will give me a list like below:  
admins  
admins

And what I am looking for is:  
domain1\admins  
domain2\admins

Due to restrictions I don’t have access to wsman on windows 2008 server and cannot invoke-command, otherwise I would use the method mentioned in article “[https://powershell.org/2013/04/02/get-local-admin-group-members-in-a-new-old-way/](https://powershell.org/2013/04/02/get-local-admin-group-members-in-a-new-old-way/)”

Additionally if any of you deep web ninjas are feeling particularly randy, I’d love to understand what is going on in this command "$_.GetType().InvokeMember(‘Name’, ‘GetProperty’, $null, $_, $null) "

Take a look at this blog post from Jeff Hicks. He uses the ADSI method to get the local admin group members and display their domain name: [Get Local Group Members with PowerShell • The Lonely Administrator](http://jdhitsolutions.com/blog/powershell/4908/get-local-group-members-with-powershell)
