  Hi guys,

  I have always worked with SQL 2005 and now I am going to install and use SQL 2008 R2 for reporting.

  But I have a doubt: I am reading that SQL Server 2008 Reporting Services does not use IIS.

  My question is: Can I install SQL 2008 Reporting Services on a stand alone server (with web server or not) and the database server is located on another machine?

  Thanks

  You can definitely install SSRS 2008 on a standalone machine.

  What do you mean by 'with web server or not'?

  Database server can be on a different machine as long as all sits within the same domain.
