Custom Report Link reports prompting for password

Sorry, did some digging and found you need to set a default ODBC user
and password on the system agent for the server.

Now it functions perfectly.

So, have set up a couple custom Crystal Reports that I've linked within
Vantage 8.03.400 using the Custom Report Link.

It all properly fires off from within Vantage, however, it's prompting
the user for User Name/Password (and a "Use Default User/Password"
checkbox disabled).

I've got the report pointed to a file DSN with an embedded
username/password already. The Crystal Report run within Crystal
itself works fine and doesn't prompt for the user/pass - so only
happens in Vantage.

Anyone know how or why it's prompting within Vantage still?
