What does won't work mean? You cannot connect, there is an error? Details are important.

Have you installed reporting services on the other machine? Has the report been deployed to the new machine? Have permissions been granted on the new machine?

I deploy the report into the web server, I believe I can run it from other machine, in this case how the users

will see the report? do I have to instal reporting services in each users machine? I don't think so.

explain please

Can you use IIS Admin to connect to the web server and verify that you have a reportserver virtual directory?

the problem was the IIS port, the intranet was using port 80 and the reporting services the same and I change

to port 81 and bingo...works
