Lose Security options in Report manager

I have installed RS on a machine and have deployed several reports. Now when
I go into Report Manager, there is no security settings on the properties tab
- This means I am not allowed to add/edit roles or any security functions at
all. Under the properties tab, i only see a general settings which lists
modified date, modified by, creation date, and created by information for the
report. The security functions used to be there - how do i get them back?
I used the RS.EXE tool to deploy my reports to the server - Could this have
caused my problem somehow? Any help would be appreciated!If you log on from the local machine as a local machine admin you should
always have permission to set security. It is hard to say why you lost your
security, perhaps somebody else came and removed them? Does you script
attempt to modify security?

missing. I dont think the RSS file does anything with security - It is a
modified version of the sample scripts that come with RS - we just used them
to deploy our reports.

uninstalling and reinstalling reporting services. I tried rerunning my RSS
script and cannot get it to duplicate the problem i was having - Wierd, but i
guess it is fixed...

authentication, you can't publish since it's not authenticating.
