Project Web Access & Sharepoint Services Authentication Issue

[Thomas.Scicluna]

Hi,
I'm currently running a pilot of the EPM solution with about 30 users.
Users are authenticating via Active Directory (rather than locally via
Project Server). There has been a few random bugs but generally stable,
until....
I added the most recent two users. They can both access and browse the
project web access sites without any issues but are prompted for
username and password when attempting to view the project workspace,
issues, risks etc which are all hosted in sharepoint services. Their
windows credentials (which were used to access PWA) do not allow them
access to the sharepoint services? This is not happening with any of
the other users, including myself. Can anyone provide advice on this? I
suspect that any new users will be impacted by this issue.
Many thanks
Tom

Tom, within PWA under Admin > Manager SharePoint > manage sites, you may need
to syncrinise the users ( a botton at the top of the WSS site lists). Once
you have syncronised the users, let them try it again. This should resolve
the issue ( i hope )

Marc,
Thanks a million... Once I discovered that you are requried to select
which project you wish to sync (in the manage WSS page) your resolution
worked a treat.
You've saved me spending another week in the depths of sharepoint
despair. Thanks again.

Tom
