Shivagange&nbsp;when you say remotely are you accessing it from a machine on a different network / domain?

vanessafvg, we are accessing in the same network.

Shivagange&nbsp;i think you have to open port 80 or something, but i could be wrong.&nbsp; I think its a firewall setting&nbsp;check out this document to see if it helps&nbsp;https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/reporting-services/report-server/configure-a-firewall-for-report-server-access

vanessafvgWe have disabled the firewall and url is working fine on local computers (http://&lt;ip address&gt;/Reports) by giving the windows authentication we are able to see report server web page(windows_authentication.png) but its not allowing to access the reports (pbirs_error.png).It's throwing error like could not load folder content(Your not allowed to view this folder.Contact your administrator to obtain the necessary permissions).&nbsp;windows_authenticationpbirs_error
