Forms authentication support #24

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
We use forms authentication as our only authentication mode and this tool does 
not seem to support this.  Would it be possible to include this in the next 
release?

Your web-service is hosted as a different application. You don't need to use 
only forms authentication on that too. ReportSync only uses the reports 
webservice.

Users having forms authentication often customize the login form.
Without having access to the config files of your server, ReportSync would 
never be sure which form you are using, or what variables to pass.
I won't be able to add support for this in any immediate release. 
Most users would not even be comfortable having to place and run this 
application on their servers so it had access to SSRS configuration files.

If you have implemented a custom authentication, you can enter those 
credentials here and ReportSync should work.
