Hello,

I’ve spent hours looking for an answer on Google but no joy. I wonder if anyone knows answer to this:
Is there a limit on number of users in Windows 2003 security / distribution group? If yes, does a query based distribution group have any limits?

Regards,

Michael
 
yes

5000 objects (with a couple exceptions for a couple built-in groups like domain users)

this is why group nesting is the recommended method from microsoft.
