Report Builder accessing from Internet

Report Builder 2008 if accessed from the Internet from external computers not in the same domain as report server
need to do the following:

on the remote machine, go to your User Account in Control Panel
Pick your Account
Select Manage Network Passwords
add an entry > reports url
put in the name of the report server >DOMAIN\username
put in the user and password you use to login > Password
apply it

run the report builder app again and it should download and install

this has to do with permissions not getting passed for non-domain members so that the Click Once install routine can download the application file
