Local group permissions

Hi,
Is it possible to grant role assignment to report server local groups in
SSRS 2000? if so, how? I can't do it.
Thanks
AlexI managed to set local group policy only by adding the users to a
server-level group and then assign that group permissions. The same can be
done by adding individual accounts to the server itself, but I was unable to
create groups within RS itself.
Hope this assists,

If I want a particular user to be able to view one or two reports and those
alone without viewing other reports, how would I attempt this. Say I want
only Sales see the sales reports, payroll to see only payroll, Tech Support
to see Tech Support and etc...
is this possible?

Yes, you simply add the user to the group having permission on that report.
Be aware though, that by adding the user to that group he/she will then be
able to view ALL reports that particular group has permissions to.
example.
Report 1
Report 2
Report 3
Report 4
Group A
Group B
If Group A is given permission to browse Reports 1 and 2, and Group B is
given permission to view Reports 2,3 and 4.
By adding User X to Broup A, he/she will have access to Reports 1 and 2, by
adding User z to Group B he/she will have access to Reports 2,3 and 4.
If you want User Y to view Report 2 only, and no other Reports, then you
will need to either add that user directly to Report 2, or create a new Group
C, and assign permissions to Group C to view Report 2.
Again, such Gropus may be part of the Active Directory or the Server.
I hope this clears up any ambiguity.

How do I set the permission on the particular folder that holds the reports?
