Security Question - Totally Stumped

Setup: Domain = MyDomain, SERVER (SBS 2003 R2), SERVER2 (Windows 2003 R2,
SQL 2005)

SERVER2 has joined to the SBS domain (verified by looking at the AD on
SERVER).

When I log into SERVER2 using the Admin credentials of the domain
(Mydomain\administrator) no problem. When I open up IE from SERVER2 and try
to hit CompanyWeb running off of SERVER in the SBS domain I get prompted for
credentials instead of just going to the web site. I can put in
"MyDomain\Administrator" and password and it opens up Companyweb no problem,
but why am I even prompted? I logged in under a domain account.

To add to this SERVER2 also has SQL 2005 with Reporting Services. With
using the same MyDomain\Administrator login I try and hit
http://SERVER2/Reports and again I am prompted for credentials instead of
going directly to the site. I can put in credientals and it continues. I
even log in as the local Admin and the same thing happens. I have looked at
the group memberships and I can't see a problem. Just to add to this I can
go to any XP workstation and login as MyDomain\Administrator and no problem
hitting CompanyWeb or http://SERVER2/Reports. Finally, I even try another
domain account that has domain admin privledges and get the same results so
it's something with this machine.

Where this is causing me a problem is that I cannot install CRM Professional
on SERVER2 because it says it cannot see the SQL Report Server and I know
it's because it can't go directly to the site and instead looking for
credentials. Since I didn't have much important stuff on SERVER2 I even
re-installed the OS thinking something to hosed but I get the same results.

I'm totally lost on where to turn for answers on this one. I've wasted DAYS
on this one.

Thanks for any help or guidance.
