Passwords in the Web Interface of Reporting Services

  • Hi There,

    Please forgive my ignorance in this particular arena, but I've always used the GUI studio interface to SQL, and I'm no expert in the reporting services arena.....

    However I have a user who's having an issue that I can't seem to get round and I was wondering of any of you had had the same problem.

    Problem is that while he is working under an Admin login he keeps checking the "Remember Password" checkbox and then he can't login as a user because as he opens the URL it just logs him straight in as an Admin.

    We've tried deleting stored passwords in Internet Explorer & disabling the "usernames & passwords" boxes in the Auto Complete settings but I'm guessing it doesn't store it there because the symptom still remains. Does it store it in a cookie? If so does anyone know the format of the name?

    We currently manage to get round it by changing the Admin password, therefore killing whatever is storing the password, but this is becoming an Admin nightmare to keep track of ...... I don't really want to flush his entire IE cache for this as it will cause untold heartache elsewhere, but this is becoming a bit of pain while he's testing......

    Any suggestions welcome - thanks...

    (Of course I'm looking for one that doesn't include "Don't check the 'Remember Password' box, as the emphasis here is placed on the word above that is "USER") 😉
