Add admin user to reporting services

Hi, we have a webpage which makes a call to the reporting services
function GetSystemPermissions via C# to get permissions for our
intranet.
My question is how to I add an admin user to this group? Is it done
via Active Directory and if so what rights does the person need?
We are running MSSQL 2005 and Windows Server 2003.
Thanks for any help
Regards
MarkusReporting Services by default is integrated with Windows integrated
security. But, you have to map a user or group to a role in RS. By default
any member of the local adminstrators group is an admin in RS.
What I do is add appropriate users to the local adminstrators group on the
server running RS for adminstrative rights. But you could just assign
another group to the appropriate role in RS. For browsing I add a local
group and then to that local group I add individual users and domain groups.
That local group is then assigned to the appropriate role.
Read up on roles in RS.
