Have Server2003, IIS6 with multiple websites, sql2000, and just installed
reporting services. After making my first simple report with graph to see how
this works (XP pro), I published to the server. But, I was the only one able
to see it using the server name. So, I changed the permissions on the
reportServer and reports under IIS Default website to allow IUSR_serverName
to read/execute and enabled anonymous access with IUSR_serverName.
Now, if I want to deploy update to report to web I have to take off the new
IUSR permissions and then put them back. And, only folks within the company
could get to the report - dns is done at the firewall.
So, I made a virtual directory under IIS within the web called Reports, and
made sure the permissions on the virtual directory were set to read/execute.
Now, if I use a dial-up and a url similar to below, I'm told the user
doesn't have permissions to view the page.
http://www.mydomainname.com/reports?%2freports%2fwnchngrads&rs:command=render
I've probably done a thousand things wrong - anybody willing to enlighten me?
Thanks so much.Have you found the answer to the issue? I'm interested to hear what
your status is because I'm having the same problem as well.
Thanks

Nope. I've tried a bunch of different settings at this point. Including
the
<ReportServerExternalURL>http://www.domain.org/ReportServer</ReportServerExternalURL>
setting, but nothing has worked. I've posted at: aspfree; sqlteam,
sqljunkies, ms, sqlmagazine - nobody is answering. Even watched a few more
ms webcams. Frankly, I probably won't be able to use the product if I can't
find a solution.
I'll do my best to come back and let you know if somebody helps me out.

Having the same problem, too. Any updates?
Thanks!
Ken|||Ken,
Nothing concrete yet, but I'm at least talking to folks on the Minsasi
website and on SQL magazine. If I get anything concrete, I'll post here for
both you and Angela.
Thanks,
