title: SSRS on a Domain Controller / DNS Server
body: <p>I have installed SSRS on a server which is also both a domain controller and a DNS server and am having some difficulty setting up permissions.</p>
  
  <p>The symptom is the "User does not have required permissions" message, the solution for which is well documented online (e.g. <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/3389040/reporting-services-permissions-on-sql-server-r2-ssrs">Reporting Services permissions on SQL Server R2 SSRS</a>).</p>
  
  <p>However this solution is not working for me. I have opened IE as administrator and added my domain user with full privileges under both site settings and folder settings, yet still I can only open Report Manager when I open IE as admin, and furthermore when I do so I can only open it with via localhost and not via the machine name. </p>
  
  <p>I suspect the issue may be related to the fact that the server is also a domain controller and a DNS server but really don't know.</p>
  
  <p>EDIT: I should expand on what is happening when I enter the machine name: I am being prompted for credentials 3 times and then getting a blank screen.</p>
