Hi all,

Im new to SQL reporting service and im trying to configure the service.

my question is can we create new roles in a single machine which is not attached to a domain? cos when i try to add new new role it always says

The user or group name 'WORKGROUP/sri' is not recognized. (rsUnknownUserName)

any help on this?? my machine is not in a domain....

thanks

Not exactly. Reporting Sercvices is part of SQL Server, so wherever you can install normal SQL Server, you can add Reporting Services. For example, on my development machine which runs Windows XP, I have a Development version of SQL Server running, and I have Reporting Services also running there.
