I am getting this error from Report Builder
Cannot create a connection to data source 'dataSource1'.
Back end SQL 2000
Credentials stored securely in the report server
Login and password of the SQL login
The weird thing is pointing to another db on the same server works fine

Peter.freeborn@.halliburton.comHope you have created Report model, If not use report model to access reports
from builder.
If you have already created it check the datasource "test connection" in the
report model project.
If you are accessing directly from builder using "open report server file",
dont do it cause it will ask for datasource which you cannt include. So
create a model and then access.

a problem with kerberos security. Basically if you store the credentials in
the report server then the report server can pass the credentials fine,
however on a remote server it can't unless you've set up kerberos and use
windows security.
Thats my understanding of the problem, however the error message doesn't
really lead you in that direction.
