| I've got an issue that is perhaps a bit different than any other related posting on this topic. I have successfully installed and configured SSRS for SQL 2005 and now I'm at the step where I need to require SSL. So I opened the Reporting Services Configuration, then selected Report Server Virtual Directory. Then I select the checkbox Require Secure Socket Layer (SSL) connections. At this step I am required to enter the name of the certificate. Here is the problem: The server in on 2 seemingly different domains and the certificate was issued to domain A, but the server name is listed under domain B, but both domains resolve to the same IP address. Here are the specifics: A) The cert was named according to this domain pattern: <server_name>.orgA.domainA.com B) The computer name in system properties is: <server_name>.orgB.xx.domainB.com When I run the report server web interface, I get this error "The request failed with HTTP status 401: Unauthorized." So my question is: Why isn't the certificate for Domain A working? Should I request a certificate under the domain of option B above? Is there a configuration that is required? Note - I've modified the file rsreportserver.config per the installation instructions. Thanks in advance for your assistance, -Scott |
