Reporting Services, Don't see report

When I access the report from the localhost (Which holds the SQL & IIS Server
for Reporting Services) - I can see everything. However, if I go to another
machine and access the "reports" - I can see the report manager, the folder,
everything - until you click on the report - then in the "report body frame"
- it just simply says - "Page not found"... Not an authentication error, just
as if I typed a URL which doesn't exist. The top frame still shows the
report manager links, etc...
Any advise is extremely appreciated...RS works using roles. You have to assign a user or a group to a role. When
you are on the local machine you most likely are logged in as someone who
has administration rights on the machine, this puts you automatically into a
role since the administrators local group is by default given a role. What I
do is create local groups and add domain groups and users to the local
group. Then I assign the group to a role. Read up on roles in the books on
line.

Thank you for responding to my question... However, when I am asked to
authenticate from another machine - I use an account with admin rights... I
GET the Reports "Home page" - when I click on an actual report - I get the IE
"Page cannot be displayed" problem.
So - I type in http://myreportserver/reports
it comes up with the typical reports homepage... then I click on a folder,
see the reports... click on the report and the LOWER FRAME (Which holds the
reports) shows "Page cannot be displayed" like as if I typed a bad URL...
The top half still shows all the tab sheets for the report.

Report Manager) and go to the credentials tab and see how it is setup.
