Moving ReportServices databases. Failed!

We tried to move the two 2005 ReportServer databases to another platform. The actual db move worked fine (detatch/copy/attach) but when the report guy tried to change the connection info in Report Server he could not seem to make the change. So we backed-out the changes and regrouped.

This should be very cook-book. I have no experience with Report Server but I know some of you guys could to this with your eyes closed. After the databases are moved I think all we have to do is change the server name and credentials in Report Server. Is that correct? Do we have to bounce any services? Are there any tricks I can impress the other guys with?

Thanks,

Michael
