Distribution Lists type

why not returning results?

$name = gc ".\list.txt"  foreach ($user in $name){  $searcher = new-object directoryservices.directorysearcher([adsi]””)   $searcher.filter = “(&(objectclass=group)(samaccountname= $user))”  $founduser = $searcher.findone()   $founduser.properties.grouptype   $value = $founduser.properties.grouptype   if ($value -eq '2')    {    write-output “global distribution group”   }  if ($value -eq '4')    {    write-output “domain local distribution group”   }   if ($value -eq '8')    {    write-output “universal distribution group”   }  if ($value -eq '-2147483646')    {    write-output “global security group”   }  if ($value -eq '-2147483644')    {    write-output “domain local security group”   }  if ($value -eq '-2147483640')    {    write-output “universal security group”   }  }

this should work better:

$users = gc list.txt
foreach($user in $users){ 	$searcher =[adsisearcher]"samaccountname=$user" 	if($founduser=$searcher.findone()){ 		switch ($founduser.properties['grouptype'][0]){ 			2 {'global distribution group'} 			4 {'domain local distribution group'} 			8 {'universal distribution group'} 			-2147483646 {'global security group'} 			-2147483644 {'domain local security group'} 			-2147483640 {'universal security group'} 			default {'unknown'} 		} 	} }
