Sharepoint services have stopped working

I have run into a recent problem with Sharepoint Services. I will try and be
brief initially and provide more information as needed. I would appreciate
any help that can be provided!

Info:

1. Sharepoint was working fine since I installed it a year ago. It has
worked properly without problems with Project Server

2. I performed some upgrades on the SQL server which were "Recommended" by
the Microsoft Baseline Security Analyzer. I cannot recall explicitly what I
did (a month or so back)

3. I upgraded all Windows Server 2003 machines to Service Pack 1.

4. I made no changes to the Project Server configuration

Problems:

1. The home page now says there are problems with Sharepoint. UNder risks
and Issues it says: "There is a problem establishing a connection with the
Web server running Windows SharePoint Services. Contact your system
administrator."

2. The risks and issues pages in Project Server display each project. When I
click on a project to get its risks/issues then the following message is
displayed:

The documents, risks and issues features in Project Web Access use Windows
SharePoint Services.

There is a problem establishing a connection with the Web server running
Windows SharePoint Services. Contact your system administrator.


3. Sharepoint itself appears to be working fine. If I go to the home site,
it works. If I go the admin site, it works fine. If I go to a specific
project site within sharepoint, it works fine. If I call up the issues and
risks within the project site, it works fine. Basically, all elements of
sharepoint are working correctly

4. So, my conclusion is that it is the integration betweem Sharepoint and
Project Server that is the problem. It would be nice to know which user is
being called inside the .asp page to request information as I think this has
to be the problem.

There are no messages in any Event Logs, and to frank, I am stumped. I know
it must be something that I changed, but I do not seem to be able to
pin-point it.

Thanks in advance
