Reporting permissions

[DennisZhao]

I am having troulbe with permission settings on sms reports. I can login on a workstation using my smsadmin account, if I can browse to

http://smsserver:80/smsreporting_site

and I can see all the reports available. When I login as myself, and go to the same page, I see the report window opens up, but there's no reports available to run.

In the sms admin console, I gave myself all rights under the report class, all instances. What else am I missing?

Have you added the account to the SMS Reporting group?

 

[DennisZhao]

Which SMS reporting group are you talking about? Is it a AD group, or on the sms server?

There is an AD SMS Reporting Users group, add yourself to it, then make sure that group is setup on the local SMS server.

The only place I have seen that group is on the local SMS server as you specified. Also, if the SMS server is running windows server 2003 sp1, there is a dcom object you may have to modify.
