"The request failed with HTTP status 401: Unauthorized" SQl server reports

I am using SQL Server Reporting. All reports are deployed on REPORTING SERVER.

I want to implement security roles as same as in Active directory. Currently reports are being accessed using Anonymous user setting in IIS.

I have added users in SQL Server security as well as data base level. But when user accesses report following error occurs:

The request failed with HTTP status 401: Unauthorized

Please reply with solution as soon as possible. I will be very thankful to you

So, this is an IIS error which means that the request doesn't event make it to the Report Server. You can try creating a simple website with a single page in it and configure this website for Windows Integrated security. You will probably get the same error. You need to find why IIS is rejecting the web request.
