It actually is stored in the registry, but it is a section normally locked off
from all users. It is in hklm\security\sam\builtin\aliases with the info spread
all over under that key in several other keys. It isn't like you are going to
look at one registry value and have the list.
You need to use one of the APIs to recover the info. If you don't want to write
code you can call out to net localgroup or if you want remote machine info look
at my lg tool on my website.
