    SQL Server 2000 Reporting Services New Web Site Deployment

    Ok, before I say anything I just want to say that SQL Server Reporting Services is one of the coolest and crappiest things ever!  :P  It is a really neat product and tons easier than Crystal Reports, but man oh man is it hard to setup.  Here's a great little article on how to set Reporting Services on a new Web Site other than Default Web Site, which is what all the examples I could find show.  The short version of the article is that to make Reporting Services work on a new web site in IIS, you have to make virtual directories under your new app called Reports and ReportServer and match every single setting exactly.  Once you do that, everything flies!
