    Search usage reports in Shared Services

    I'm listed as a contributor on our production Shared Services Provider.  I can get to most sections in SSP except the Search Usage Reports. When I click this link, it says I don't have authority.  My network admin, who manages the CA can't figure out how to give me permissions to this page.  Anyone know?

     Have your network admin check Advanced Permissions in Users and Permissions under Site Settings. It's very likely that your credentials are not included in the Viewers SharePoint Group.

     It's just this page that I can't access.  Are there special permissions for this certain page?  I can get to everything else in Shared Services.

     In SSP, access to the various services is not controlled by People and Groups, but by Advanced Permissions. It is not a good idea to add a user to People and Groups as a contributor or otherwise

     But, I AM in the viewers group - that's why I can see ALL other pages EXCEPT this single page.  Why can't viewers see this page?  Do I have to be a site collection adminstrator in order to have access to this?  Is there any other way?
