Dumb Question

I know it sounds kind of dumb. Is there supposed to be a front-end portal
for "Browser" level users? Where can I find them?Yes. It is called report manager. If you have a default installation using
http://<servername>/reports should get to it.

kept the defaults) as well as just going to //<machine name>/reportserver.
Just make sure users have permissions to see the reports and folders the
reports are contained in.

is a report manager console. But I remember my instructor (RS class) once
showed us a screen with the url like "someServer/portal"..'.. That
interface has report links on the left and blue in the background. Could
this be another Microsoft product'
