Run Reporting services from a netwrok share

I have reporting services installed on server A. I want to have iis on server
B point to the report manager on server A. I created a netwrok share on
server A and have iis pointed to this share. When I try to browse the report
manger I get:
Description: An error occurred during the processing of a configuration file
required to service this request. Please review the specific error details
below and modify your configuration file appropriately.
Parser Error Message: Execution permission cannot be acquired
Is it possible to do what I am trying? Is there an easier way?No, you cannot do this. If you want to have report manager on a different
box than the database you can do that but you have to purchase an additional
license. If you want a web farm you can do that. You cannot use any network
file sharing to accomplish anything. The reason is, Report Manager is a
asp.net application. The reports do not exist as files, they are all stored
in the database (search for *.rdl on the server and you will not see any).
