Installing

Hi Group
Absolute newbie in reporting services...
Have a server with a SQL 2005 Standard Installation (version 9.00.1399.06) -
and now I've been asked to check if reporting services are installed - How
can I see this - and if its not there how do I install it ?Go to Control Panel, open "Services" applet, if there is "ReportServer"
service running, then, most likely, RS is installed on this vbox. Or go to
IIS manager, underneath Website, if you can see virtual folder "Reports" and
"ReportServer" (or Reports$ServerInstanceName and
ReportServer$ServerInstanceName), then, RS is installed.
RS can be installed on a computer where no SQL Server itself is installed.
However, it requires IIS. To installed it, simply place CD/DVD into drive
and in the installation wizard, make sure you select Reporting Services. You
may need to plann ahead for the user accounts used by RS: RS uses different
accounts for the service and data source access. You'd better plan ahead
according to your needs. RS is also an ASP.NET application, which has its
own security configuration that you need to plan well before hand.
