Hi, I got a strange error (The request failed with HTTP status 401: Access Denied), when I try to call ReportServer WebService. I have my own web service which calls a C# component and this compoenent Instantiates RS web service and try to call any method. It throws the above error. But If I have a normal web Application, which calls same C# component(inturn component calls RS web Service), it works fine... Web Application ---> C# Component ---> RS WebService -- Working Web Service ----> C# component ---> RS WebService -- Not Working I gave anonymous access to RS webService and to my web service also... I write rs.PreAuthenticate = true; rs.Credentials = System.Net.CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials; But still it is not working. Help me in this.. Thanks in advance, Ramesh Ramesh
