Are you hosting the service on a Windows 2003 server?
Apparently there are some issues with Windows 2003 when trying to
impersonate a user to a remote resource. We stumbled across a similar issue
when using SQL Reporting Services hosted on Windows 2003. We reinstalled the
entire reporting environment onto a Windows 2000 Server and the problem
immediately disappeared. These issues related to security problems access
resources on remote machines via a web application.
If you have access to a Windows 2000 server and you are currently using a
Windows 2003 server, this may be worth testing.
