So many blogs and articles online on this issue that I have lost count how many read and how many times I might have deleted and recreated web applications. As most of the articles and blogs suggest to enable Annonymous Access on the ReportBuilder Virtual directory in IIS, but SQL 2008 reporting services does not create this Virtual directory in IIS so how do we give annonymous access??? Broken my head on this issue with my colleagues and lot of hours reading long msdn and technet articles but all in vain...
Resolution:-
1. Browse to Central Administration of SP 2010
2. Application Management
3. Manage Web applications -> Select the Web Application which will be used for SSRS
4. Select Authentication Providers -> Select "Enable Annonymous Access" checkbox
5. Click Ok.
This will setup the most required annonymous access for the virtual directories in IIS and Report builder will start downloading from Internet also. Hope this helps to many out there. Also to mention our SP site was also configured with Kerberos and SSL using a Hostheader.
