Hi All,
I have a small issue of making a Active Directory Group a member of another group.
I have been able to create a group, I have been able to make a user a member of that group, but when I try and make a group a member of another group e.g. TestGroup a member of Administrators I'm currently get an error of "The server is unwilling to process the request"
As far as I was aware Users and Groups are both containers so I'm not sure why when adding a user to a group it works, but when trying to make a group a member of another group it doesn't work.
Adding a User to a group WORKING
Trying to add a TestGroup2 to the group TestGroup which are in the same Organisational Unit NOT WORKING
Any help on this would be great, tried alot of googling and msdn but no luck
Thanks
