Retrieve the Active Directory groups of the current user

How can I get the Active Directory groups the current user belongs to?

Is there a way to do this using the DirectoryServices.AccountManagement library?

I found how. It turned out to be very simple with DirectoryServices.AccountManagement :

using System.DirectoryServices.AccountManagement;

PrincipalSearchResult<Principal> groups = UserPrincipal.Current.GetGroups();

IEnumerable<string> groupNames = groups.Select(x => x.SamAccountName);
