If you're using the same code that I posted, then the _cf.ReadCustomFields() method call is the first time you're actually trying to connect to the PSI and do anything with it -- so, you're not actually "logged in" before this point -- you've just been getting "into position", so to speak. It is possible to generate the Proxy Class from the WSDL without actually "logging in", depending on your configuration.

A few questions to start:
  1. Is your computer joined to the same domain as the server?
  2. If so, does the user account that you are logging into your computer as have a corresponding account in PWA?
  3. If so, does your user account have the necessary permissions for this method (as defined in the SDK) in Project Server (CreateNewProposalOrActivity, LogOnToProjectServerFromProjectProfessional, ManageEnterpriseCustomFields, ManageUsersAndGroups, ViewResourceCenter)?
  4. Do you have the same issue if you create a new NetworkCredential(), give it your username, password, and domain, then set it to be the credentials for the _cf Web Reference?
