Thanks guys... so I did the manual backup/restore w/ No Recovery and then setup log shipping. All seemed to proceed without error. However, I'm not sure how to tell if it's truly working properly. When I run a log shipping status report, I'm seeing a Red Alert, but when I look at the LSBackup, LSCopy and LSRestore job history, everything is green and happy?
Yes the jobs will always usually show success. Check the individual step output for each step, errors will be listed here.

Another question, after log shipping has been setup, can you change between No Recovery and Standby mode
Yes you can
