RS Samples

Hello , all
While I am still stumped on my Netscape issue I think (THOUGHT) I had
possibly found an avenue I could explore to repair/augment that
functionality.
UNFORTUNATLEY the files I need are not there.....
I am looking for these files
C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL\Reporting
Services\Samples\Applications\ReportViewer\vb
Was this something I missed on the install of RS ?
Thanks
ChrisIf all of the files are missing, go back to install and add them... then
they must be deployed... I checked my folders and the vb one exists..
Installing the Sample Reports
To upload the sample reports, you must first install them on your hard drive
by using Reporting Services Setup. When installed using the default
location, Reporting Services sample reports are installed in the
Samples\Reports folder within the Reporting Services program folder (for
example, C:\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL\Reporting Services\Samples\Reports).
The reports are not automatically deployed to the report server. You do this
manually by uploading reports using Report Manager, running a script, or
publishing the reports using Report Designer.

RS and Netscape 7.0

I am having problems accessing the report manager with Netscape 7.0. I am
not exaclty sure why, but it is related to authentication. By default, the
IIS resource is configured for Windows authentication, which does not seem
to work with Netscape. I get an empty main page. I tried text
authentication, which make Netscape challange me for a user/password, but
still does not allow me to access the reports.
I assume that this should work? Thanks.I have some more information:
- I installed RS using the default settings for services account and
database access.
- My data source is configured to use integrated security.
- When I try to access the report manager with IE, it works
- When I try to access it with Netscape 7.02, I get an access denied error
- When I add basic auth to the IIS resource and access it with Netscape, I
get challanged
- When I provide my server credential (member of the admin group), I am
authenticated and I see the report manager's home page
- When I click on a report (IE), it renders fine
- When I click on a report (Netscape), I see the top navigation and an
otherwise empty page

I changed the data source authentication to SQL Server and provided an
account.
I am running the AdventureWorks Sales Reports sample.
The IFRAME that is supposed to show the report on the Report Manager page is
empty.
When I paste the report URL from the IFRAME statement into IE, I get to see
the report.
When I paste the same URL into Netscape, I get to see the report, but no
numbers (just the blue table structure). The table dimensions seem to be
correct, though. When I export from Netscape to PDF, the report is fine.
