Cannot login to PWA from a computer other than the install server

I cannot login to PWA from my desktop computer however I can login when I
access PWA on the server where I installed Project Server. BTW, I am using
integrated authentication which works fine on the server. I am having the
same problem accessing the shared service provider I created. I can,
however, login to Central Administration. Can anyone help me out?

When I pull up PWA through IE 7 on my desktop I get the following error:

Server Error in '/' Application
