Firefox and password problem with URL access

with URL access, IE does not prompt for password to report server on
"localhost" but Firefox (1.07 - latest version) prompts repeatedly for id and
password. Even when the correct admin credentials are entered it still
continues to prompt for password.We had similar problem with RS2005 in IE. The quick fix was to go into
Tools | Internet Options | Security | Local Intranet | Custom Settings
then scroll down to User Authentication | Logon and set to "Automatic
logon with current username and password"
You may also have to do this for the "Internet" zone too.
We got group policies set to cure this in the long term, but this is
not my area so I can't give specifics.
Now in Firefox, I don't know if there is a setting to pass windows
credentials through to IIS - which is what is going wrong in your
scenario. I've had a quick check and couldn't see anything. But with
Sept CTP it doesn't work well at all with FireFox anyway!!
