I have two computers in a workgroup. I want to access Report Manager from the computer NOT running Reporting Services. From the computer running Reporting services I can access the Report Manager by putting URL http://localhost/ReportS$imgs2005/Pages/Folder.aspx. So how do I access Report Manager from another computer in a workgroup? |

Try accessing like this:-[url]http://machinename/ReportS$imgs2005/Pages/Folder.aspx[/url]or [url]http://machineipname/ReportS$imgs2005/Pages/Folder.aspx[/url] |

what was error you got? did it ask for username password? also have you username being added among local admin of the machine from which you accessed report manager?have a look at this article and see if it helps:-[url]http://www.msdner.com/dev-archive/140/19-82-1401280.shtm[/url] |

What I am thinking is that since my computers are on a workgroup and not a domain it is causing a login problem. When I try to access Report Manager from the client computer I get a page not found. But I am thinking since I can't or don't know how to add a workgroup user to Report Manager security that might be the problem. In Report Manager Security it has for the Server login as Machinename\username. When I try to add the client computers machinename and username it says The user or group name 'machinename\username' is not recognized. I have added an account on both computers with the same login and password |
