You had responded to another user's email entitled "Keeping PMs out of each
other's projects".
Here was the problem:
I have people that I've set up as Project Managers in Admin using the
Project Mangers Template to set permissions. I've also set these people up
with My Project Categories. When they sign on to PWA all they can see is
their projects when they go to the Project Center. Which is good. BUT, when
they sign into Project and do a File - Open they are presented with ALL the
proejct that have been Published to the Web. And at this point they can open
any project that has been created, regardless of who created it. This is
where I need the security.
Here was the response:

You are going to way too much work trying to set up Project Server, knowing
that the default settings would have taken care of your problem. Without
knowing whether the previous Project Server administrator made changes to
the system and what changes he/she might have made, and not knowing what
changes you may have made as well, I can only take a stab in the dark at a
solution for you. Try this procedure, assuming the default permissions are
still in place:
1. Log into PWA with administrator permissions
2. Click Admin - Manage users and groups
3. Click the Groups link in the sidepnae
4. Select the Project Managers group and click the Modify Group button
5. In the Categories section, select the My Organization category
6. In the Permissions grid of the Categories section, make sure that
NEITHER the Allow or Deny permissions are selected
7. Click the Save Changes button
We have the same issue. I performed the above steps and now I do not see the
entire Enterprise Resource Pool when I select "Build Team from Enterprise" in
Project 2003.
Any ideas or suggestions?
