Can't get to report manager home page.

I have Reporting Services 2005 installed on my Windows XP machine. I can access the Report Manager home page with the built-in Administrator account. However, my own account, which is a member of the Computer Admin group, is denied access with a 401.3 error. The 401.3 seems to be access denied due to not being on the ACL. I am using simple file sharing. What should I do to give access to my own account?

I don't know if IIS works with simple file sharing. It is something at the IIS security layer, nothing to do with SSRS. You might try some other files a simple ASP.NET app.|||

It wouldn't be correct to say that IIS doesn't work with Simple File Sharing, since I am able to get to the Report Manager home page using the built-in administrator account. Also, I should mention that if I allow anonymous access to the Report Manager directory I can get to the Report Manager home page under my own account, but then the home page is crippled (no site settings tab for example). I agree this might not be a SSRS problem per se, but I was hoping someone has encountered this problem when using a development machine (Windows XP) to host SSRS, as I am.

|||Yes, turning off Simple File Sharing works.
