sql server reporting services:
I have a .net web app that uses windows authentication and database role
based security. How can I use the same database roles with Reporting Services
while using windows authentication and not forms based authentication ?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Regards,

No it's an implementation to integrate RS with an asp.net web
application. The application has custom
security(roles,groups,permissons,items) in a separate user store. RS
needs to use this store but also use Windows Authentication. The
application and RS are both on an intranet, so there's no need to have
the users enter new credentials. I've seen some examples of using
Custom security with Forms Authentication but not Windows
Authentication.
Also in Report Manager I want to use custom groups not the ones in AD
or PDC. If I connect the Custom Extensions, will Report Manager use
these custom groups as well?
Thanks in advance for any help.

Yes I did. I'm thinking about reading the author's book. I've been
hearing good things about his book. I used that sample to try our
implementation.

If your data sources are using the security of the report caller (user) then
you should be OK for database access. Is that the question? I'm not quite
clear on what you are trying to achieve with the security.
