Reporting server and Active directory authentication

Hi!
Does anybody know how one can prevent users from accessing some
reports on the report server website using active directory? I have an
active directory with all the users and I would like to use this to
enable / disable users from viewing and accessing reports.

Hi Erik,
You should be able to set up securtiy via the report manager website.
Permissions can be set for folders or individually for reports. If
you look at the properties and go to the security tab, you will see
the users who have permission to access the object. To start with, you
should see the user 'BUILTIN\Administrators' as Content Manager.
Here you can add new users with different roles, or create you own
roles.
Is that what you are looking for?
