Do I have SQL Server 2008 or SQL Server 2008 R2 installed?
How to identify your SQL Server version and edition
SELECT SERVERPROPERTY(‘productversion’), SERVERPROPERTY (‘productlevel’), SERVERPROPERTY (‘edition’)
Version Components and Numbering
SQL Server 2008 R2 is a minor upgrade of SQL Server 2008. This means that it shares the same major version number with SQL Server 2008, and has an increment to the minor version. The product version for SQL Server 2008 R2 is 10.50.bbbb.rr. Compare this with the product version for SQL Server 2008 which is 10.0.bbbb.rr.

SSRS 2008 Security Item Level and System Level Role Definitions
In SSRS 2008 it appears you can no longer configure item-level role definitions and system-level role definitions like you used to be able to do in SSRS 2005 as shown in this screenshot from SSRS 2005.
This functionality to define roles still exists but you can no longer access it through the Report Manager website. To manage item-level and system-level role definitions you need to use SQL Server Management Studio and use it to connect to SSRS on your server. Once you do that you can create new system-level and item-level role definitions. Once those are created you can go back to report manager and utilize the defintions you created in SSMS.
