How to connect to Project Server in Project professional?

[MarcosLima]

Gentlemen
I have installed successfully Project Server 2003 with WSS. I can access it
by Web Access with success.
When I use Project professional and try to connect with Project Server to
publish one project, it returns an error (page forbidden to access or
something like that).
What I don't understant is when I create a user account (in Project
Professional), it doesn't ask any passwords, just the Project User name (or
Windows name).
Is there any guide to make this work? Or something I missed?
Thanks in advance
Marcos

Hi CQ
I'm trying to publish a project in Project Server. I have created it at
Project Professional.

Just a recap:
1) I have installed Project Server.
2) I can work with it with PWA in my workstation. It asks an ac
3) I start Project Professional and create a project.
4) When I start to control it on Project Server, I have to inform an URL to
my project server. When I verify it (although it's the same URL that I have
typed in Internet Explorer to access it by PWA), it doesn't work saying that
that page is "forbiden access".
5) I'm already tried to create an account as you told - but it fails in the
same way when I try to open the connection.

Am I missing something?

Thanks

Marcos

MarcosLima,

You will need to be granted the "Open Project" permission. Open Project is
a category permission that allows you to open a project from the Project
Server using Project Professional.

Hope this helps,

CLin

Hi clin341

I suppose that this could be done AFTER the project is published (and I
cannot do this yet - I can't even connect with Project Server using Project
Professional - using PWA I can connect without a glitch).
I have created at Project Server an administrator account that have all the
permission set enabled but I think I should missing something as I can create
an administrator account at Project professional but it doens't require a
password (how can it be authenticated?)

Hi all

I found something regarding my problem: I have to enable Anonimous access to
Project Site. Is it normal to all of you or it's something I choose in my
installation procedures that make it work only in anonimous access.
