Reporting services requirements!

Hi All,
I know RS supports Oracle and other DBMS.
I am wondering if i am using other DBMS beside SQL server 2000 for my application and i want to use RS as the reporting tools, does it mean that i still need to install SQL server 2000 in order to use RS. I want to use RS for my reporting tools but some of my clients are not using SQL server 2000.
Thanks,
HenryPlease refer to
http://www.microsoft.com/sql/reporting/productinfo/sysreqs.asp for system
requirements for client and server components. VS.NET is required for
installing the report designer (client.) SQL Server 2000 is required to
install report server (since report server database is created in a SQL
Server). However, you may create datasources and run reports against Oracle
and other DBMS products (if there is a data provider available for the
target RDBMS). Check
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/RSMAIN/htm/rsc_architecture_v1_8msz.asp
for details.

Reporting services instalation

hi all
I'm not sure if I get it right:
I downloaded RS trial and I'm trying to install it, I'm having trouble
understand requirements. Is it really necessary to have visual studio
installed on (future) RS server? AFAIK, it's only necessary on 'client'
machine running designer, or?
tia
You don't need VS on the RS *server* machine.

Reporting Services Enterprise Edition Requirements

All,
Does the Enterprise Edition of Reporting Services require SQL 2000
Enterprise?
If not, can I use a custom security extension to make RS available to
the Internet without per processor licensing on SQL?It does require an Enterprise Edition of SQL Server license.
