2008 R2 terminal server, SSRS and 2X

Hi,

Is anyone out there using 2X with a Windows 2008 R2  terminal server?   I cannot get SSRS reports to work via 2X.  I tried changing the ssrs proxy to allow anonymous authentication and I disabled Windows authentication and I just get a blank screen.  The key is making it work with 2X and  Windows 2008 R2 , because it  worked fine with 2X and Windows 2003.  In addition, if I have a remote desktop connection and I launch Tessitura it works.  I know Ramp uses 2X, I just don't know if they are on 2008 yet.

If any of you know how to brute force a connection through 2X and IIS, I would love to hear from you.

    OK, I have been digging around in IIS 7 and I discovered this messgae:  "This server is configured to accept connections only from accounts with Windows credentials."  So it would not matter that I had allowed anonymous authentication because the server is set use only Windows credentials.  I found a site (http://learn.iis.net/page.aspx/159/configuring-remote-administration-and-feature-delegation-in-iis-7/) that explains how to open the server up, but I am leery of doing that.  Another site said to make a registry change to the LmCompatibilityLevel, but making registry changes are never a good idea for a production server.  

    Is anyone an IIS expert that knows how to allow anonymous auth. without exposing the server to attacks?
