Administrator with No Report Manager Privileges

I am logged on as a user with administrative privileges to
my machine, to the machine housing the report server
database, and to the the web server, yet when I go to
Report Manager, I do not have access to the Home folder,
only one lower folder, and no Site Settings for anything.
How do I add the necessary privileges if I'm already the
administrator?I found that if you have set the Report Server virtual directory to allow
anonymous access in the IIS mgmt console, you may find yourself in the
situation you described. I was experimenting with anonymous and got into the
situation, where I was a local admin but options like create new folders and
upload files were all gone from Report Manager. After I removed anonymous
access, I was able to fully administer Reporting Services via Report Manager
again.

about the configuration of anonymous access, however,
this site needs anonymous access. Any suggestions on how
to get my rights back and keep anonymous access?

really need anonymous access. I hope MS folks can shed some light on this
behavior.

user. Since that user does not have any role assignments in the report
server, they cannot see any folders, nor can they perform operations.
We recommend that you do not use anonymous access to the report server, but
enable windows secuirty.
