To get active directory group's members as sext - put this in powershell

If you get error:

check user names for restricted symbols.
Almost any characters can be used in Distinguished Names. However, some must be escaped with
the backslash escape character. Active Directory requires that the following
characters be escaped:
Comma |
, |
Backslash character |
\ |
Pound sign (hash sign) |
# |
Plus sign |
+ |
Less than symbol |
< |
Greater than symbol |
> |
Semicolon |
; |
Double quote (quotation mark) |
" |
Equal sign |
= |
Leading or trailing spaces |
|
The space character must be escaped only if it is the leading or trailing
character in a component name, such as a Common Name. Embedded spaces should
not be escaped.
