ReportViewer1.ServerReport.ReportServerCredentials = New System.Net.NetworkCredential(sUserId, sPwd, sDomain)
In the above, I specify the encrypted value of userid and pwd and domain in the config file and decrypt before doing the above.
But, the same doesnt work with WebForm control. My implementation procedure should be same in webform application. I have read a lot about it like ImpersonateUser, FormsAuthentication.... etc. But I want to know..
1. I am using Sept CTP, is this been addressed in RTM
2. How do I make use of NetworkCredentials (I already have userid, pwd and domain name ready... in the config file), is there any sample code
3. Are there any issues following this method
Thanks in advance.
NetworkCredentials with ReportViewer (web) control

Thanks Brian,
I have got the solution by doing the following. Not sure if am correct
public
class ReportServerCredentials: Microsoft.Reporting.WebForms.IReportServerCredentials{
private string strUserName; private string strPassword; private string strDomain; public ReportServerCredentials(string sUserName, string sPassword, string sDomain){
//Set the values in local variables.strUserName = sUserName;
strPassword = sPassword;
strDomain = sDomain;
}
#region
IReportServerCredentials Members public bool GetFormsCredentials(out System.Net.Cookie authCookie, out string userName, out string password, out string authority){
authCookie =
null;userName = password = authority =
null; return false;}
public System.Security.Principal.WindowsIdentity ImpersonationUser{
get { return null; }}
public System.Net.ICredentials NetworkCredentials{
get { return new System.Net.NetworkCredential(strUserName, strPassword, strDomain); }}
#endregion
}
and using the following line
ReportViewer1.ServerReport.ReportServerCredentials = _
New ReportServerCredentials(sNetworkUserId, sNetworkPwd, sNetworkDomain)May be this will help others as well.

Supplying custom credentials is a little more complicated in webforms. The main reason behind this is because the credentials need to be available even after the aspx page has finished executing, to retrieve asynchronous images from the report server, for example.
To supply credentials, you need to implement IReportServerCredentials on a serializable object (depending on your session state settings) and pass that to ReportViewer.ServerReport.ReportServerCredentials.
