sql server reporting services : Image Problem

I have a web application which invokes MS reporting service, gets the result
of a render call and writes the result out to the Response object. Everything
is fine except when the rendered format is html and the report contains an
‘External’ image (image in Report Project) - here the browser asks for the
report server login credentials before serving the image. If the login is not
correct, the image is not served. Is there any way the image can be made
available to the browser in this case?

Take a look at the SP1 ReadMe item
http://download.microsoft.com/download/7/f/b/7fb1a251-13ad-404c-a034-10d79ddaa510/SP1Readme_EN.htm#_external_images.

SP1 should be installed on the Server and on all Development Workstations
where you develop reports. There is nothing to install on the clients.

Now your problems are directly the result of you not setting the Unattended
Execution Account up properly. When you have set that up you'll find that it
works.

From the link that Ravi sent you:

When the report is run on the report server, the report server uses the
unattended execution account to retrieve the image. If the unattended
execution account is not specified, the image is retrieved using no
credentials (anonymous user account). If either of these accounts have
insufficient rights to access the image, the image will not be displayed in
the report. For more information about setting the unattended execution
account on the report server, see "Configuring an Account for Unattended
Report Processing" in Reporting Services Books Online.

Other strange thing,
If the image is located in the same server that IIS, the image is right
displayed.

someone can tell me what is happen?
