Project Server 2010 Deployment,Mapping,and Authentication

Question

Hi all,

I did sharepoint 2010 server installation in small farm as below :
SharePoint 2010 (Enterprise) in 1 machine,
SQL server 2008 R2 in 2nd machine

I have cool 3 questions :
1. How difficult is it to install PROJECT Server 2010 over the above small farm?
2. Do I need any type of  "mapping"  for Project server 2010.
3.in the very last stage, I have to show kpis and Reports for the user, so I am making SSRS ready by using Kerborose authentication. So If Project Server is installed, then Kerberose is needed or then not needed ?

Pls need some light on my concerns and refere any reference links ::
Thanks a lot !

Hi,

Ad 1)

- just install Project Server 2010 bits on your SP 2010 machine
- run "psconfig -cmd upgrade -inplace b2b -wait –force" from SharePoint PowerShell
- copy FileDlg.htm and EditDlg.htm from SP DocLib folder to pwsdoclib<//img> folder
- create Project Server Service Application
- start Project Application Service
- setup Project Server Web Application  (create a new SP Site Collection and than new PS Web Application into it).

See http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee662109.aspx

Ad 2) PS integrates into your current SP environment, you just need to setup new PS Web Application. http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee662105

Ad 3) you need to setup Kerberos authentication if you need to avoid the “double-hop” problem. If you want to create PerformancePoint dashboards accessing external data using "user identity", than you need to use Kerberos.
