  Hi All,

  I've installed and configured SSRS 2008 R2 on a SSRS box. I can access the web report portal fine as well as all the reports in there. The problem arises when I try to access this link outside the server, for example on my local machine.

  My local machine and the server are connected to the same switch and are part of the same network. When I try to open the portal on my local machine I get asked for authentication details. No matter what authentication details I use, the portal will not load.

  Any ideas on what I can do to get this to work? The users of these SSRS reports will not be logging into the SSRS server to run them but will instead rely on the SSRS portal which will be run from their machines.

  Thanks

  Try adding the Report Server Portal to the Trusted Sites in IE. That normally will stop the credentials prompt.
