Hide Folders

Hi All,
I have a list of folders per department
i.e.
HR
Sales
etc
Each of these folders are assigned a group and have been given the default
role of browswer
However when the user logs into the reporting services site, they can see
all the folders - go into them however if they try to browse a report which
they do not have permissions to they get a Page cannot be dsiplayed error?
Surely there is a better way of doing this.
When my user goes into RS, I would either like them to see only the folder
they have been assigned to or at least not even be able to access the
folders at all that they have not been assigned to.
How do I do this.
Please help.
Thanks
KNot sure what you mean. If a user does not have access to an item on the
server, it will not display in Report Manager. Try removing all role
assignments from an item and see if they can see it.
