sql server reporting services : Newbie Question

After having problems with my first attempt at installing Reporting Services, I did some reading, found the answers I needed and did a re-install. Everything worked fine, however, I did not delete the original web sites from the first install (called Reports and ReportServer) and when I did the re-install then the new sites created were Reports1 and ReportServer1. Is there anyway to rename those to Reports and ReportServer in IIS and then re-configure RS to point to them? I did see a parm for URLRoot which points to ReportServer1 but did not find anything which points to Reports1. Of course, I suppose I could go through another re-install but I would rather not. Thanks in advance for any help!

You need to change the URLRoot that you mentioned as well as ReportServerUrl
element in RSWebApplication.config. There are also some registry settings
that need to change. I don't remember them off hand, but search for Report1
and ReportServer1 and you should find them.
