Configuring SSRS to use a shared account instead of client accounts


i new srss, bear me if stupid question.

we have web application written in silverlight points urls on report server. trying lock down database access single domain account security purposes. created data source use "credentials stored securely in report server" , specified domain account "<domain>\user1". created login in sql owner role database.

rdls created reports and uploaded report server. each report pointed to the "shared data source". since using domain authentication, check marked "use windows credentials..." , tried checked , unchecked "impersonate authenticated..." no luck.

i guess expected request link website report server initiate report report server run using "shared data source" using "stored" credentials. example if domain user george logged pc , lauches report website, website invokes report service url. report server query database using "stored" credential (user1) data, display george.

i kept getting authentication failure message user <domain>\george instead of report. had add george user on database server in order report work correctly.

that tells me report server not using "stored" credentials configured in datastore, appear windows integrated security. however, not how data source configured.

can please advise me on doing incorrectly? appreciate in advance.

 

okay, can not explain this, appears working. did change 1 rdl to:

<rd:securitytype>none</rd:securitytype> <rd:securitytype>integrated</rd:securitytype>

i able access report using user did not have direct database access. tried rdl without changing securtytype , 1 worked now. did not make sense me. decided change first rdl "integrated" , worked now. makes more confusing.

to ensure using account in reports server, changed the data source "stored credentials" to account did not have access. blocked expected. changed , worked.

any ideas on might have been happening?
