Can't access reports by server name

I am trying to set up Reporting Services on one of our servers. It is set up
and I can get to the reports by typing in http://localhost/reports but when
I try http://<servername>/reports I get page not found - this also applies
to any files in the default website. I think it is something straight
forward in IIS but I don't what it is - I am a programmer and a bit clueless
with IIS. Regards, Chris.Are you sure your <servername> is where the reports are located? The
<localhost> is an alias for 127.0.0.1 or the local loopback address. It
sounds like I would check to see also if the server has more than one address
on it. The /reports URL may not be listening on the address for <servername>.
