I am using Forms Authentication for Reporting Services.  I can attach to the Report Server from Sql Server Mgmt Studio.  But using the same information I get a NullException (in the Report Server logs) from the Server Administration screen. 

Any Ideas?

Thanks in advance,
Steve

Steve, are you using our reporting services module within DNN to interface to SQL Reporting Services? If so, with those credentials can you access the report server using the standard reporting manager interface?

Yes, I have downloaded a demo and am trying to test it.

yes, I can access all the areas of Reporting Services just not using the module.

Steve, when you say forms authentication, you mean you are not using the default AD integration but have written your own authenticatio mechanism?

Correct. We are pulling user information from a sql server database.

Ah, that is likely the issue then. The module is built implementing the standard authentication interface provided with SQL RS which is the integration with active directory. We can explore what changes would be needed to support forms based authentication, I have not looked at this yet but will add it to the module feature considerations for a subseqeunt release.
