I have freshly installed new OS and SQL 2005 with Reporting Services.
When I try to navigate to ReportManager I am getting "Cannot connect to
remote server" message.
What can the problem be?

Thanks

You might want to check the SQL Server 2005 Surface Area Configuration
[quoted text, click to view]
of the SQL Instance) >> Database Engine >> Remote connections and make
sure that 'Local and remote connections' is selected. Hope this helps.

That is the whole error message from Report Manager?

There is usually an rsERRORTYPE message at the very least after an error
message displayed in Report Manager that could help tell us what the error
is and what it is trying to connect to.

Check the SRS Error logs as well as those will give you more information
and post what you find here.

The logs can be found in C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL
Server\MSSQL.#\Reporting Services\LogFiles
