RE: Crystal Reports Enterprise 8.5 ohhhh the pain
No I am not passing the login and pass in the url. If you leave the params blank it uses the nt auth. Heres how I ended up getting it to work. http://mybox.box.com/crystal/enterprise/viewer/viewrpt.cwr?apsauthtype=secWi ndowsNTid=204 If you have any other techniques for this please let me know.

Everything is configured according to the docs they have provided but unfortunately the windows auth through iis works but the user is still prompted with the login box for crystal enterprise. I can select 'nt auth' from the crystal drop down enter no credentials and hit submit and it knows who i am.

Can I pass generic vars on the url to get it to pass and create the cookie?

RE: Crystal Reports Enterprise 8.5 ohhhh the pain
CR does set a cookie for each parameter, and i believe the max is 20. Passing it via url does cause cookie problems. What I do is use NT authentication for the login, Just make sure the crystal server is logged in as a user that the db has an account for. A problem that I ran across was subreports, when you use cross db joins, it will get confused with all the usernames and passwords, so I just used the same usernames and passwords. FYI, create a list and pass it in as one parameter and strip it apart in CR that way you won't run into the cookie problem. -Original Message- From: Sean McCarthy [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, December 23, 2002 9:10 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: Crystal Reports Enterprise 8.5 o the pain No I am not passing the login and pass in the url.
