Add User to Log-Shipped Database

I have a SQL 2000 Enterprise Edition sp4 production database that is log
shipping to 2 servers (one for DR purposes and the other for reporting).
On the reporting server, the database is in Read-Only mode. I need to
add another user to the database so they can run reports. How can I do
this with the database in read-only mode? I can't take it out of
read-only because I'll have to set up log shipping all over again, won't
I?
This is a 40 GB database so that would take quite some time to do.
Do you have any suggestions?
Thank you.

for that login on the
originating server and then add the same login on the reporting machine (mak
ing sure that the SID
matches).

I'll make sure to put this in my documentation so I don't forget.
Thank you so much!
