I can login to the project server via the browser and Project Pro 2003. I can create new projects in Project Pro and publish them. But, I cannot connect to the server via the plugin. Whenever I try I get an "invalid username or password" error message. I have checked the Project Web Access settings in Outlook and verifed they are correct. The server is set to the same as it is in Project Pro. I've tried the username as just the name, and tried it as Server\username. Nothing seems to fix the problem. Anyone have any idea how to fix this?

No, this did not correct the problem. I reposted the message, along with an update, to the correct group. Thanks for your help.
I am also having this problem I don't know what to do, I can log in through IE but it will reject my project username/password through outlook. bo.wells@gmail.com wrote: > No, this did not correct the problem. > > I reposted the message, along with an update, to the correct group. > Thanks for your help.
