I have images stored in one of dirctories on server's C drive
Report Manager is on different server.
When I add image to the report I specify image type as External , but How do I specify value for that so I can retrieve that image

When you specify "External", it gives you the option of puting the path in there. It needs to start with "file:", then have a standard URL to a shared directory.

Thank you for the reply, but I also need to specify windows credential in that " How DO I do that?

Do you mean you need to have an on-the-fly credential, or you just need to specify a credential that has rights to the folder with the images, or something else?
The security tab on the image properties has controls for some of those options.

I don't see a security Tab on image properties. Credentials to access that directory where images reside

The report is probably running under the credentials that SSRS is running under. Does that account/group have access to the folder?

Images are on a one server and report server is on another server, they don't have common logins.
Do I need to create new login on image server, that report server can access

If the report server login can't access the images, the reports won't be able to either.
