sql server reporting services : Can set anonymous to ReportServer

It can be depending on how you plan to manage your server and what rights
you set. When anonymous is on all users are seen as the same user. This
means you must give this user rights to everything you want people to
access. This means you can not have certain people access one folder and
other another. If you also want to do management type task as anonymous
then everyone will be able to do it. You could grant the anonymous account
rights to only certain folders and then every time you need to manage the
server, turn anonymous off.

Another option for you might be to use Forms authentication and then give
your users a user name and password. This would allow you more control over
security.

This is not really my area, but I believe there is a logon/logoff api that
you used. There should be a Forms example that you can look at.

I want to all user can see my reports in the server just like they can see
my web page.
I set the virtual directory ReportServer's access to anonymous.
If there any dangers to do that?

Thank,
Your another option is the answer.
But another question:
I use Forms authentication , how can I pass the user name and password to
rpeorting service from a login form ?
