OK, right off I've got to tell you that I'm not familiar with Report Server Configuration Manager.

So, I got into it on the report server. On the left side of the page, it has 6 items which all have those green check marks next to them: Server Status, Report Server Virtual Directory, Report Manager Virtual Directory, Windows Service Identity, Web Service Identity, Database Setup.

The Report Server Virtual Directory is pointing to a website on the server named ReportServer.

The Report Manager Virtual Directory is pointing to a website on the server named Reports.

SharePoint Integration and Encryption Keys both have a blue exclamation mark next to them, but that indicates that they're optional configurations, and at least with respect to SharePoint that's fine, as we don't even use SharePoint.

Initialization (whatever that means) is "not supported in the current mode" (it has a gray check mark next to it).

Both Email Settings and Execution Account have a yellow exclamation mark next to them. I can try to set up the email settings, but I've no idea what the Execution Account means or is. (I just tried configuring the email settings, but that failed. I'm not surprised in a way, because the email address we'd use requires changes to the default SMTP port, and that Report Server Configuration Manager UI doesn't really give me access to change the ports.)
