Hi, I'm doing some work with ldap on a MS system, trying to extract members of groups. The following code seems to do that... 
use strict;
use warnings;
use Win32::OLE 'in';
use Data::Dumper::Simple;

my $ADsPath = "LDAP://CN=users,DC=woodland,DC=wednet,DC=edu";
my $adsobj = Win32::OLE->GetObject("$ADsPath") or die "Unable to retri
+eve the object for ADsPath\n";
warn Dumper($adsobj);

foreach my $adsobj_child (in $adsobj) 
{
  if (($adsobj_child->{Class} eq "group") && ($adsobj_child->{samaccou
+ntname} eq "Domain Admins"))
  {
    warn Dumper($adsobj_child->{member});
    
    my @array = $adsobj_child->{member};
    foreach (@array)
    {
      print "$_\n";
    }
  }
}

Now, warn Dumper($adsobj_child->{member}); shows me the members of the group as an array, but the foreach over either @array or directly over $adsobj_child->{member} just gives me ARRAY(0x1a94908). How do I get at that (I don't want to just assign the output of dump to a variable, I want to know what I'm not understanding!) Many thanks!
