logon window

Hi,
Whenever I click on a report to open it, it asks me for my Windows user ID
and password. I am connected to my desktop using my domain account and
report server is installed on SQL Server (domain controller as well).
The report is using NT authentication method.
Does anybody know how can I get rid of the login information window?
ThanksHi,
If You are using a shared datasource then rightclick on the datasource
->open
In the credentials tab check what is the option selected it should be "Use
Windows Authentication(integrated security)" If you have windows
authentication for you Sql server. If the option selected in this tab is
"Prompt for credentials" then the report promt for user credentials every
time it launches.
Incase u are not using shared datasource then u canget the above tab from
the data tab of the reportdesigner and then browsing on the datasource
dropdown.
Leme know if this solves ur problem
Thanks,
siaj

Administrators and users can browse the Reports application. Administrators
can view the reports, but users get an authentication prompt.
Both the Reports and ReportServer application use Windows Integrated Auth
and have Anonymous disabled.
What would the difference be if the user can view Reports but not
ReportServer? (I tried https://{server}/ReportServer and still got the prompt)
There's got to be some difference between

Login troubles

I've installed SQL server express on a remote server. Using remote desktop, I can log in using Windows Authetication.

But I also want to be able to login remotely. Using Server Management Express I've added a new login and specified the password for SQL server authentication. My problem is that the password keeps getting changed to a mystery 15 character value.

What's going on?

Are you saying that you're tried logging in with the password you're setting and it's not working?

Login problem: MSDE database from ASP.Net

I have created an MSDE database and successfully used it with an VB.Net
program on my desktop. Works great.
I have just begun learning ASP.Net. I created another MSDE database. But I
can't get past the login problems. "Predict" is the name of the database.
"GARY" is the Windows user account name. The error message is as follows:
Cannot open database requested in login 'Predict'. Login fails. Login failed
for user 'GARY\ASPNET'.
I used the following 2 connection strings. Neither works.
data source=(local)\VSdotNET;database=Predict;integrate d security=true
workstation id=GARY;packet size=4096;integrated security=SSPI;data
source="GARY\VSDOTNET";persist security info=False;initial catalog=Predict
Does anyone know what MSDE might be looking for here?

you have to grant the account trying to log in (GARY\ASPNET) login
privileges as long as granting hin db access to the required databases..
as you can see from the raised error, using WinNT trusted authentication via
asp, you are not using the account you are logged in with, but the account
IIS is running on..

Thanks Andrea. I am using MSDE and not SQL Server. As I understand it,
MSDE does not come with comprehensive administration tools. I can't figure
out how to grant access using MSDE. Are you aware of any tools I can
download or pay for without buying SQL Server, in order to grant database
access to a Windows user account?

you can use the command line tool, oSql.exe, provided with MSDE, like
described in
http://support.microsoft.com/default...EN-US;q325003, or you can
have a look at a free prj of mine, available at the link following my
sign... other tools,, both free and commercial, are listed at
