PWA 2003 Share Point Services - NT Display name change

[ljsexton]

Is there anyway to go one place and have a user's display name in PWA
Document Libraries (across all projects-sites) show up with their current NT
display name? Have individuals whose last name changed and for all other
places in PWA Not assoicated to document management the current NT display
name is showing as expected with the latest change. So far, we have found a
work around but not a desireable one as it is quite labor intensive. If each
site is manually modifed to change the display name for the user it will show
as desired, but this just does not seem right. Is there any other way around
this one by one site editing procedure?

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Jackie

Jackie:

You have discovered a deficiency in the synchronization between Project
Server and WSS for 2003. The only way around this is to code up an
additional synchronization between the two to correct the display names.
This is a big problem for businesses with a signifcant young female
population in their workforce.
