RS Install killing me w/ 'NT AUTHORITY\ANONYMOUS LOGON' error

Hi - my config is as follows:
- RS Standard on Windows Server 2003 (server1)
- SQL Server 2000 for repository on a different server server2 (same domain)
- I am logged onto server1 as domain admin (full SQL perms to server2)
- I have successfully installed other RS repositories to server2 (different
db names of course)
Installation fails at the "Configuring Microsoft SQL Server" part with error
message: "SQL Setup failed to connect to the database service for server
configuration. The error was: Login failed for user 'NT Authority\Anonymous
Logon'. "
It appears to be losing my interactively logged on credentials.
Here is info from the log:
SQL_ERROR (-1) in SQLDriverConnectW
sqlstate=28000, level=0, state=0, native_error=18456, msg=Login failed for
user 'NT AUTHORITY\ANONYMOUS LOGON'.
Error 29545. SQL Setup failed to connect to the database service for server
configuration. The error was: Login failed for user 'NT AUTHORITY\ANONYMOUS
LOGON'.
Refer to the Server error logs and setup logs for more detailed information.

Thoughts?
thanksHow are permissions configured for server2? I've had some problems in the
past connecting from a local machine account to a domain sql server
(configured with mixed security). I was attempting SQL authentication. It
started working when I changed the service to run with a domain user
identity rather than a local machine user; then it connected with SQL
authentication just fine. That was odd, because I expected SQL
authentication to work regardless of the windows login identity.
Cheers,

baseline assumption so we're on the same page - it's the ID of the
interactively logged on user performing the install who the repository
database is created under.
Regarding permissions for server2, the user I am logged onto server1 as is
domainA\userA. This user is a domain admin and has full admin to server1 and
server2, as well as SQL Server on server2.

credentials are not passed correctly and I had to run the setup program from
the command line and explicitly pass it credentials with which to run the
setup program. The command to run setup ends up looking something like this:
setup /i "setup\rsrun.msi" RSSETUPACCOUNT=sa RSSETUPPASSWORD=sapwd
I've been told you can use any credentials you want (domain administrator,
etc.), but I just used the sql sa account, and that worked correctly.
I had the same problem when installing sp1. I had to manually extract the
.cab file and run setup from the command line once again:
sp1setup RSSETUPACCOUNT=sa RSSETUPPASSWORD=sapwd
Hope this helps.

Another fix for this - add the 'NT Authority\Anonymous Logon' account
as Local Admin on the SQL Server box and then be sure
Builtin\Administrators has SA access on the SQL Server.
Run the install and then change the dbowner to "sa" and remove the
account.
That's how I finally got it installed on a Win2003 box...
