Project Pro 2003 on 2003 client unable to connect to Project Server 2003

[Lisa Smith]

We have Project Server 2003 setup and running on a 2003 Server. In
our location of about 20 client users, all of the Windows XP and
Windows 2000 computers can connect to the Project Server 2003 with the
Project Professional 2003 desktop just fine. The problem is that we
have 2 Server 2003 clients and they cannot connect other than within
Outlook and the PWA. If they try to connect via Project Professional
2003, it just freezes. When creating the connection using the Project
Server Accounts utility and we "test connection" it always says it is
successful. Every computer and the server is at Project 2003 SP1 in
all respects. Project Professional can connect from the Server 2003
that is running Project Server 2003 but not from a client 2003 server.

Lisa:

Are these servers in the same domain? This sounds like a security or
authentication issue. It likely has nothing to do with Project or Project
Server.
