Installing to Server

Hi there,
I am trying to install reporting services on our server at work. It is a Win2k server OS, with SS2k on it. It does not have VS .NET installed. Is it possible for me to set up the server so that it is the central repository for all our reports and then develop and design the reports from my development box, which does have VS .NET installed? When I install SSRS on my development box it creates the Reports and ReportServer Virtual Directories on IIS but for the server it does not do this. Is there a way of moving these folders to the server from my development box or some way of getting this to work?
I feel like I am banging my head against a brick wall at the moment, getting nowhere fast.
Please any help would be great.Yes, this configuration should work. One thing on your development box, you
should not install the server components, rather install the Report Designer
feature under the client components.

server box, you should just be getting a warning about VS not being
installed. You should continue past this and select to install the server
components and the Client tools (samples and BOL if you want them).
On the Dev boxes, only install the Designer component, BOL if you want each
Dev to have a local copy.
Hope that helps.
