I'd really appreciate any help anyone can offer me to help solve this little
problem.

The My Assignments webpart when used in MLG has started to report:

Speciifed cast is not valid. Unable to log onto Class Server at <URL> as
<logged on user>.

I've checked that my settings are pointing to the Class Server Dataservice
and that the base names for the assignments are correct.

Anyone any ideas?

David,
When viewing the page with the My Assignments webpart, the webpart zone
shows the selection menu for the classes. Below it it says:

Specified cast is not valid. Unable to log on to Class Server at https://<my
url>/classserver/dataservice2/service.asmx as <domain>\<user>

where <my url> is my url to access the MLG, <domain> is my domain and <user>
is the logged on user trying to access the MLG.

Ah, so the problem may be in the Classes Web Part, rather than the
Assignments Web Part. Can you put the page into design mode just to be sure
which Web Part is showing the message?
