Hello, I am a newbie to SQL Server n SSRS... I created 2 reports successfully and deployed them. I can access and run the reports on IE at http://localhost/ReportServer/ or http://localhost/ReportS... When i try accessing the same on Mozilla Firefox it is asking me for User name and Password. I never did setup one for Reporting server...
Additional Information..
1.Using SQL 2005 Dev Edition
2.SQL installed on a Single user Computer (Win XP Pro)
3.Tried using the local Admin and SA UserId and password, but no success
Please give me some suggestions on how to resolve this issue...

My understanding is that IE passes windows authentication information in a way that Mozilla doesn't support at this time. So it will prompt you for your username/pw and then pass those to the system making the request.

Aaron,
Thanks for the reply. Do you have any idea how can i access these reports on Mozilla Firefox. Any idea how can i have Mozilla pass the windows authentication to the report server.

Found the solution
IIS uses Integrated Authentication and by default IE has the ability to use your windows user account...but don't worry, so does Firefox but you'll have to make a quick configuration change.
1) Open up Firefox and type in about:config as the url
2) In the Filter Type in ntlm
3) Double click "network.automatic-ntlm-auth.trusted-uris" and type in localhost and hit enter
