Report Server & Manager Oddity

After installing the server components on our win2000k sp4 server
(running sql2000 sp3) and deploying a test report, browsing to the
report server simply shows a directory listing of the report folder. I
can run the report by and it runs fine, but there's no management
interface - just a file listing.
The Report Service is running; .net has been registered successfully.
Maybe associated is the fact that when browsing to the Report Manager I
get a display of the folder.aspx page, but no active icons except a link
to an empty subscriptions page.
(I haven't installed the RS SP1 yet - was hoping to confirm a successful
base install before going there.)
I'm so new to .net that my head is spinning, but it seems that I'm just
missing something simple. Any help that gets this thing running will be
a huge relief.
Thanks,
KevinHi bro...
Please check if you opening reportserver or report manager. Normal urls are-
REPORT MANAGER: http://localhost/reports
REPORT SERVER: http://localhost/reportserver
Also please see if you are logged in as administrator of your local machine.

If you mean the file listing which is represented by the Reporting Server,
you are heading to
http://localhost/ReportServer
the URL to get to the Managing Interface is, just keep track that you
inserted the right URL:
http://localost/reports which will redirect you to the managing interface.

directories in IIS= ReportManager and ReportWeb (named by a convention
for our company).
drilling to http://wcserver3/Reportweb gets me a directory listing of
the single test report but no management tools - just a raw directory
listing.
drilling to http://wcserver3/reportmanager gets me a nicely formatted
but empty folder.aspx page.
Is this thing totally screwed up and should I expect better results if I
uninstall/reinstall?
Kevin|||Yes, I'm logged on as a domain admin and although the virtual
directories are named a bit different (ReportManager and ReportWeb)
drilling to the respective folders still presents nothing with any
management features.
Weird thing is that the test report deploys fine from VisualBasic.net
and the report runs if I manually drill through a standard directory
listing to the report file. It's just that all the managment features
of reporting services simply aren't there.
Kevin|||If you see nothing it a point of security settings, check the security
settings of the virtual directory that you surely log on with your windows
credentials.

same. So even though you have admin privileges ReportManager treats you the
same as a user with very low privileges.

anonymous access on the virtual folders, but resetting to use only
integrated authentication resulted in being able to get all the
management options. Both you and Jens were right on the issue.
Thanks so much for the help!
