Hi Everyone I’ve deployed a new site system using the ConfigMgr R2 SP2 computer account (added computer account to SSRS local admins) to our Corporate 2008 SSRS server which is running on server 2008. The site system installed fine and I temporary added my admin account to the local admin group prior to following these steps http://scug.dk/blogs/configurationmanager/archive/2009/08/13/configuring-sql-reporting-services-user-permission-for-configuration-manager-2007.aspx I’ve copied the reports and everything works great on SSRS but once I’ve removed my admin account I cannot access the reports DIRECTLY from the ConfigMgr console. I know this is kind of trivial but I’d like to get it sorted to work with minimum permissions. I’ve tried adding myself as a “Power user” OR “Distributed COM Users” I’ve tried to “Configure a Report Server for Remote Administration” in the lab using these steps http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms365170(SQL.100).aspx It seems to be a WMI remote permission issue/challenge….any suggestions? Thank you G-Man8

Have you added your using account to the 'browser' role in SSRS: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb558976.aspx?

Hi Torsten Thank you for the quick reply. As I said Corporate SSRS....so I didnt have right's to the "Home" folder....got that changed via our SQL admin and that resolved the issue. Still need to be a member of "Distributed COM Users" which I can understand. Thanks again for your help :) G-manG-Man8
