I have SQL 2005 Reporting Services Installed on Web Server A and it is running fine.
I would like to run a report on Web Server B, on a different box in the same network, using the ReportViewer Control.
My question is, what are the steps involved in getting this to work?
I really appreciate the guidance.
Thank you
Gary

Raunak, thanks for taking the time to reply.

I would like to access the reports on Server A from Server B.

I don't want to install an additional instance of SSRS.

Thanks

Are you writing your own web front end with the report viewer control in it? If so, you set the report server url to your reporting services server (http://myservername/reportserver).
