i'm having a really hard time getting access over the internet with my AWS instance. I can set up the reportserver and access it locally just fine, but accessing it from the interwebs is proving really frustrating.i've checked the windows firewall, opened port 80 on reports. I'm curious if other people have issues with AWS. could be a security thing on the console, or it could be that i can't get the dang public IP right. any help appreciated.
Remember that out of the box Reporting Services only has Windows Authentication which isn't going to work across the internet unless you happen to have a user local to the Reporting Services server with the same username and password. Alternatively set up custom authentication.
