Change the Report Manager Interface

Hello,
I was hoping to modify the default interface for the Report Manager to feel
more like our other online reporting pages. I found a few articles about
creating asp.net web applications and all that, but was hoping just to change
the color scheme, place an image somewhere, etc...
is this possible? if so, how easy is it and are there any good resources out
there?
Thanks!

http://ovstravelfolio.com/Hi Ben,
You can edit the stylesheet that's located
<ReportManagerRoot>/Styles/ReportingServices.css (with a default
installation the path should be "C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL
Server\MSSQL\Reporting
Services\ReportManager\Styles\ReportingServices.css") to change the
color-scheme, fonts, etc...
Editing the physical layout of the portal isn't that easy and not very
practical. You would most likely need to replace the Pages.aspx page and
override the Pages class where you would inject / replace the layout
changes. You can however replace the default images and icons that are
already present in the layout. These are located in
<ReportManagerRoot>/images.
Hope this was of some help.

Change reporting services default URL (From http://server/reports to http://CompanyReports)

I looked online and couldn't find anything to help me make this change. I want to change the default URL for reporting services to another url. Is this possible? Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

I wouldn't try to change the reporting services default URL.

Instead, I would create an alias or....

Name the server that hosts reporting services "CompanyReports". Then set report manager on that server to be the default website. Then when you navigate to http://CompanyReports from any PC on your network, you will see the report manager on that server.

Change Password After 1st Login

I've tried Books Online, MSDN online and google but cannot get the answer.
Can I get ann SQL account configured such that the user will have to change
the next time they login.
Apologies if this is a simple flag somewhere but I can assure you I have
tried to find the answer.
Any help welcome.

the MUST_CHANGE option for CREATE/ALTER LOGIN.
