Logging onto Project Web Access (PWA)

I'm connecting to PWA with a Windows Authenticated Account. Everytime I try
to go to the site, it request a username and password. It won't accept the
password and username, which are correct. Does anyone have any idea why it
could be doing this?

Cole - what is issuing the challenge for username and password? Is it
Windows or Project Web Access? If it's a Windows challenge, make sure
you have IE set up correctly. In IE > Tools >Internet Options >
Security > Trusted Sites > Custom Level. At the bottom, select
"Automatic Login with username and password" Your security level for
Trusted Sites should be set to Low. Hope that helps.

We've had to add the server name as a 'trusted site' in IE or we found
another solution based on someone named Nicky in the Microsoft SharePoint
community. "When ever I browse to my sharepoint site I get a login box asking
me for my network username and password." Her resolution was as follows:

It is an issue with IE 5.0 above. IE5.0 above has a stronger security policy.

So the user needs to change the security settings in their internet option.
If you do not want every user to do this action on their ie setting, you can
request your system admin write a policy to change every lan users' internet
settings.



1. Open IE

2. “Toolsâ€->â€Internet Optionsâ€
