Reports Deployed on a local machine cannot be viewd from internet

We have deployed our reports on a local machine say "MC230" which is the
local intranet. Now we have created a asp.net page and given a link to one of
the reports by mentioning "MC230" in the URL of the link. After hosting this
page on out web site, we are able to take the reports by clicking the link in
the local intranet. But when v take the reports out side the domain we are
not getting the reports, instead it is showing Page Cannot be Displayed. As
mentioned in this group v tried changing the url in RSWebApplication.config.
still v r getting the same error.
Can any one please help us. As we are developing a corporate application it
is very urgent.The Reporting Services setup program assumes that you will be accessing the
Reports website using an address similar to http://servername/Reports. This
works fine inside your network, but it probably isn't going to work well if
you want to make the Reports website available from outside your network.
In this case you should make a change to the RSWebApplication.config file.
Find lines like
<Configuration>
<UI>
<ReportServerUrl>http://servername/ReportServer</ReportServerUrl>
</UI>
and replace <ReportServerUrl></ReportServerUrl> parameter like
<Configuration>
<UI>
<ReportServerUrl>http://www.MyRSServer.com/ReportServer</ReportServerUrl>
</UI>
you can write servers IP too, like http://212.212.222.222/ReportServer
After this change you may need to restart the IIS service for this change to
take effect.

address) to the report server. If that's not done, it's not possible.
Whatever the IT guy tells you is the correct address, put that in the config
file.
