Database recovery of SSP does not "remember" PWA site

[Tweedy]

We lost our config file for the farm and didn't have a good SharePoint
backup, only database backups. So we reloaded all of the databases and
rebuilt the farm. In order to restore the SSP, we went into central admin,
clicked on Shared Services Admin, then on Restore SSP. Everything came back,
including the 240 GB search index, but our PWA site was no longer listed in
the SSP. The browser is unable to access https://server/pwa. The message it
gets is
"PSI Auth: SiteId f4f29540-08da-4040-88b0-ca4d848baf6a was not found in the
ProjectSiteCollection for this SSP"

All four of the Project Server databases are intact. At this point, we
cannot use either central admin or stsadm to manipulate anything in
SharePoint to get it to "remember" the PWA site (or we just don't know how).
We tried backing up and deleting the pwa site, but SharePoint still thinks
the site exists when we try to do projcreatepwainstance. Running
projupdatepwainstance says the site does not exist.

Any suggestions?

Thanks.

The actual PWA site does not live in the PWA databases... its actually a site
collection that lives in the regular Content database on the MOSS side...

I am thinking option 2 from the article below, this might help too...
