How Connect User from One server to another server for viewing Report
As In our work place we have 2 server
as in one server has Bi reporting service and the other server has active directory where the groups and users are
So intially want to connect the other server to first server by the same domain name as it replicate the active directory in first domain
so other server people where they are added in active directory can see the report using there credentials
is it possible
Thanks in Advance
You are on the right way. You don't need kerberos if server and database are on the same machine. You only need kerberos with a double-hop.

I don't know, if I understood your question quite well.
The both servers have to be in the same domain or in trusted domains. BTW I believe this seems to be better asked in a windows administration community.
Kind regards,
ChristophIf They both use same domain would the second server people can login using the same credentials as they used for first server
and will user able to see the power bi reports server reportsThank you ChrisMuthmann
Hi, Prathamesh_29
Of course, you can access your reports from the Power BI Report server in another example. All you need to do is set it to scale out:
If you have any questions during the setup process, please feel free to ask them on the forum.
