Forms authentication...

Hello,

I know that basically SQL Reporting Services uses windows authentication. Does anyone know a way to change this behavior so that I can use forms authentication.

Thanks for any help.check this article :Harden MS Reporting Services Using Custom Extensions
and this one too :Using Forms Authentication in Reporting Services|||Just as a side note, you can only use forms authentication if you have an enterprise sql server licence.

Forms Authentication : Object moved

Oops!
Sorry I don't know why I sent that without a question :-)
Basically, I've implimented the Forms Authentication sample, and now
the following code causes the error above.
ReportingService rs = new ReportingService();
rs.LogonUser("UserWithBlankPassword",String.Empty, null);
BatchHeader BH = new BatchHeader();
BH.BatchID = rs.CreateBatch();
rs.BatchHeaderValue = BH;
ScheduleDefinition SD = new ScheduleDefinition();
SD = ((ScheduleDefinition)S.ScheduleDefinition);
string scheduleid = rs.CreateSchedule(R.ReportId.ToString() + "_" +
EBCUserId.ToString(),SD);
rs.ExecuteBatch();
Anyone got any ideas?
Thanks,

It may be because the authentication ticket (sqlAuthCookie) is not passed to
the Report Server. The successful output of the LogonUser call is an
in-session cookie sent to the browser (just like ASP.NET Forms
Authentication). I think what is happening in your case is that you are
generating the cookie on the same page on which you are trying to pass it
back. Do a tcp trace to find out if the cookie is sent to the Report Server.
If not, you may need to move the subsequent SOAP calls to another page after
a redirect.

Formatting, pdf, and SP2

I have a strange issue that I need help resolving. Basically, the formatting
on a report that I am exporting to pdf changed when I updated my VS to the
SP2 of the Reporting Services. Here's what I am trying to do and what SP2 did:
I have a report that I created that makes address labels. I made it to where
it has three columns, and it fit 10 rows on one page. It worked great, until
I installed SP2. Now, it will only print three across the top of the page,
then move on to the next page.
So, my questions are: 1) should I reinstall pre-SP2 RS so that I can do this
report the way that I had it, or 2) does anyone know of an example that will
help me to do what I had done in the pre-SP2 installation?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!It sounds weird, and at least I don't know if this is either caused by the
SP2. But what you can do is redefine your report's margins
