SSRS via Firepass

Hi RD,

 

 

I don't know anything about SRS any any foibles that might have but certainly the Firepass is capable of emulating what a browser does with regard to Integrated Windows Authentication, if that is what you need. But that's not using Kerberos just normal Windows authentication as far as I'm aware - is there no other option regarding the security context that the connection between the intranet and SRS uses?

 

 

Obviously you need to be presenting your credentials to the Firepass in the first place but if that is your authentication method is (or part of it) then as far as I know the place to enable its use is under "Portal Access : Web Applications : Master Group Settings" for the master group which your users belong to. Then you'll see two options, in the section titled "NTLM and Basic Auth Proxy". This is relevant to version 7.0, probably 6.x as well, I don't think that this has changed.

 

 

My company use the Windows account credentials to present different pages from the company intranet to different groups of employees and this works just fine through the Firepass.
