Publish Reports Server to Internet

Hi all,
I have an external IP for my server and I tried to connect it from out side,
I notice that the link address appear on Status bar is my localhost's name
link ... and that's why it can be accessed to view reports. It just work if I
re-config my IP setting following external IP. Who can expalin me or show me
some addresses to study more about this problem ?

Thnx lots,
NgocYour local machine has its IP address and the server has its IP address
accessible from the Internet? Assuming you have configured security so that
the server is accessible from outside, you just need to do
http://<serverIPaddress>/Reports or https://<serverIPaddress>/Reports, right?
If you are doing http://<yourmachine>/Reports, then you will see the local
report server, unless you have used rsconfig.exe to point your local server
to the external server URL. Books Online has details on using rsconfig.exe.

/Reports
The reports are viewable externally, but if I try to export them it reverts
to the computer name (Which happens to be MISERY) like this
http://misery/Reports/Pages/Reports.aspx..etc.etc
Does anyone know how to change this?
Thanks.

<ReportServerURL> element. Do the same with RSReportServer.config file. The
files are located in the folders <SQL Server Installation>\Reporting
Services\ReportManager and <SQL Server Installation>\Reporting
Services\ReportServer, respectively.
