Hi All
I am struggling in setting up my reporting server to run under anonymous user. Let me explain my current scenario
I am running the reporting server under windows authentication, when users access http://<server name>>/reports, it prompts for user name and password and this setup works fine but as the no of users increased users are typing wrong password and locking the user id. So I wanted to remove the windows authentication.
I requested my network administrator to create a windows domain user and I did following:
1. logged into IIS-> reportmanager -> properties -> directory securities -> autentication ->
2. ticked anonymous user
3. entered the <<domain name>>\user name and then password
4. unticked windows authentication
Repeated same steps for reportserver
* changed the web.config file for both report manager and report server to impersonate the windows domain user create above
* Changed reportserver service to run under the windows domain user account created above
* Gave full directory access to windows user
* created login and full access at database server for the windows domain user created above
* restarted IIS
When i try to access the URL. still it prompts to enter the user name and password.
Please help me.. i am lost.. and no correct information in any forums..

For Reportserver check the ASP.net Config option in IIS Console. Also my suggestion is not allow anonymous access leave Window integrated security on. Since you want only those users who have permissions to use your network to see the reports.

Thanks vishal..
But what should i check in ASP.net tab on IIS console??? it is running under v1.4..
and also as our website is secure website accessible only via VPN so we are fine to run under anonymous...
Could you please let me know what other options i need to change to stop the login popup when accessing reports.
