    I have a problem when want to preview reporting service report from reportviewer with 401:Unauthorized message.

    Environment:-
    - Application  (ASP.net) run from Web Server A
    - Reporting Service run from Web Server B
    - Both server configured with windows authentication
    - application added with  <identity impersonate="true"/> in the web.config
    - We want to use windows authentication.

    Senario:-
    - A) When running the application from Sever A, No Problem.
    - B)When running the appliocation from Client pc, 401:Unauthorized.

    Checking:
    - For senario A, we check Server A and B IIS log, user credential passed to both server.
    - For senario B, creatdential only apprear at Server A, not server B ( that's y Unauthorized).

    Try Out:
    - A) We have tried some code where adding username and password to the <identity impersonate setting. Doing so, it is working fine.
    - B) create CustomReportCredential class and passwing the UserName and Password. It is working.

    As you notice try out A and B also using hardcoded Username and Password. But what we want is the Credential should based on the User that using the application that's why we want to use Windows Authentication. If hardcode Username and Password it will defeat the purpose.

    Is the the problem in Report Service or IIS?

    Can someone give us some light ?

    I don't know why you asked this in the VSTO forum, but it's definitely off-topic here. I'm moving the message to the "Where is the forum for..." forum for re-direction...
