i think if the report is running as the logged in user, and that user has access to the external image it should work.
Otherwise you might have to create a generic user to run the report as that has access to the remote image.
If that fails your probably into creating a bit of custom code to go and grab the image and place it on the report.
One question i have to ask is if its just an image can you not just copy it of the external server and host it locally?
