I'd try looking at the ADSI ActiveX components from Microsoft; I haven't tried to get the information via an API call from a Win9x station. You might also consider creating a COM object that runs on the server that you can talk to, but coding this isn't going to be trivial, since you'll likely need to use impersonation to get the group info unless the COM object runs in the context of an admin account.
