Authenticating a report render from a browser

I am copying the question from another member as it is exactly my problem:
We have an extranet application (internet users) written in ASP using
VB COM. All the security of what reports users can see is handled
through this application. Is there anyway we can link RS reports using
a URL? In otherwords, users will login like they currently do now and
our application will provide a report list for them. When they run a
report, they will basically click on a link that points to the RS
report. Ideally, when the user logs in initially, they will be
validated by the current application and then be validated against RS
(background). We need this to be as transparent as possible.
I have seen this posted in several different ways, but without any
resolution. Is there no way to accomplish this?
Thanks.we have the same situation. One way to do it is to create a custom
security extension for RS and call it through web services SOAP. You
can either redirect to an aspx page that calls it or maybe call the
webservice in your asp page directly. You should read this article as
it explains it all http://www.devx.com/dotnet/Article/26759|||Marv,
I appreciate the reply and have checked out the web site you referenced. I
hate to be a wimp, but I'm kind of a one-man band and don't have a lot of
time (or a lot of the requisite experience) to undertake a project for what I
was hoping to be a simple solution.
I take it there is just no simple way to tell the Report Server to run the
report on request without additional authentication. It seems like there
should be some setting either in the manager or on the command line that
could accomplish this. I have tried various role assignments, but they seem
to be limited to the server on which the RS resides and all our user
authenication comes from a different domain (and we don't use active
directory).
Anyway, thanks for the response.

Without getting into the benfits of ADS, the security model and the
vulnerabilities, etc., if you supply (or remove) the necessary credentials to
the data source and can render the report; you could display the report in an
iframe. It would appear as though it was part of your existing application.

Caveat emptor. Someone will find the links.
Just a thought.

Auditing tables

HI!
I want to audit some collumns of one of my huge table . I wrote a trigger
for copying updated data and original data in audit table.
But when I try to update multiple rows , it gives error of "cannot update
multiple rows. "
Is there any easy way of auditing tables without using triggers . I donot
want to use C2-audit .
Regards,
Swati

full outer joins ,I was using normal joins ,so was not able to get the

Attaching Databases

Hi
I've obtained a copy of the PRODUCTION database for restoring on the TEST
Environment. By detaching them and copying the underlying files. Not my
preferred approach, but the one I'm stuck with.
When I attach them into the TEST environment. They register to the instance
as READ-ONLY. When I try to take them out of READ-ONLY mode, the error with
5105 Error. Unable to activate device.
The devices are there and the permissions / attributes for the file are OK.
Any ideas?Beverley, one thing to look at... maybe the database you
got the mdf/ndf/ldf files from, was marked read only?
and ALSO thr mdf/ndf/ldf files were marked read only at
the file level (ATTRIB command). Both are done to
improve performance, but you'd need to get BOTH the files
and the database out of read-only status... You can do it
in the Windows Explorer attributes of the file or the DOS
ATTRIB command... Bruce
