Reports 6i security and Webdb 2.2

Question

Trying to setup WebDB security for Reports Server 6i I have the following problems:
1. When run Report Access WebDB component from WebDB site Reports, CGI asks for system authorization (I already connected to WebDB, why to connect again?).
2. After I authorize myself again I get error in browser:
Error: The requested URL was not found, or cannot be served at this time.
Oracle Reports Server CGI - Unable to communicate with the Reports Server.
I read everything I could find on Metalink and OTN about these problems and followed all the recommendations but the errors still occur.
Our Config:
OS: Win 2000
8i and Apache are installed to c:\ora8i,
Developer 6i (+Patch 1) and Webdb 2.2.0.5 are installed to c:\orant.
both ora_homes have the same tnsnames and sqlnet (We have both network and net80 directories in both ORA_HOMEs):
tnsnames.ora
my_webdb_8i,my_webdb_8i.world =

(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = myhost.mycompany.ru)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVICE_NAME = mywebdb8i_sid)
my_rep_server.world=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=tcp)(HOST=myhost.mycompany.ru)(PORT=1949))
sqlnet.ora:
AUTOMATIC_IPC = OFF
TRACE_LEVEL_CLIENT = OFF

ORCookieDomain=mycompany.ru
I run reports through command file C:\orant\TOOLS\web60\cgi\rwcgiw.cmd:
set ORCookieDomain=mycompany.ru
set ORACLE_HOME=C:\orant
set TNS_ADMIN=C:\orant\network\admin
C:\orant\TOOLS\web60\cgi\RWCGI60.EXE
I run Webdb through C:\ora8i\Apache\Apache\cgi-bin\wdbcgiw.cmd
set ORCookieDomain=mycompany.ru
set ORACLE_HOME=C:\orant
set WV_GATEWAY_CFG=C:\orant\listener\cfg\wdbsvr.app
set TNS_ADMIN=C:\orant\network\admin
C:\ora8i\Apache\Apache\cgi-bin\wdbcgi.exe
I set up Report Server Acces in WebDB:
Report Server Name: my_rep_server
TNS: my_rep_server.world
URL: http://myhost.mycompany.ru:80/dev60cgi/rwcgiw.cmd?
Run only registered...: Yes
User and roles... all needed grants are done.
Also I set up Report Access:
Owner: Myname
Report name: CUSTOMERCONTRACTCARD
Server: my_rep_server
File: customercontractcard.rdf (resides in c:\reports)
All needed grants are done.
The report webdb component is added to webdb site.
When I run report as webdb component it issues the following URL:
http://myhost.mycompany.ru/dev60cgi/rwcgiw.cmd?server=my_rep_server.world+report=customercontractcard.rdf+destype=Cache+desformat=HTML+webdb=true+wwvrw_log_id_=AAAGYEAADAAAB41AAb+wwvrw_stime_=229412
system auth page appears, and after i enter proper username and password the error "Unable to communicate with the Reports Server" appears.
this URL works fine if I add to the end of it "+authid=sysusername/password", the same I tried to enter to system auth page.
If I run URL directly using key from cgicmd.dat it runs fine:
http://myhost.mycompany.ru/dev60cgi/rwcgiw.cmd?prod+customercontractcard.rdf
So is it really possible in our config to share cookies among Webdb and Reports and to run Reports Requests as Webdb component?
