Hi,

I did manage to install TFS on a windows 2003 machine...
i opened the team explorer on that 2k3 machine and made a new project


now i can't figure out how to conect to use this service from the machines on the network (which have visual studio team edition installed)

basically, i'm thinking TFS is like services like SVN or CVS where each developer has their own copy and finally they commit their work to a server...

please guide me as how to get this working

thanks
Amir

To connect Visual Studio to a Team Foundation Server machine, go to the Tools menu to access the option to "Connect to Team Foundation Server." Then specify your server name and port name. Check "Creating a Team Project" section under http://msdn.microsoft.com/msdnmag/issues/06/00/TeamSystem/ for detailed instructions.

You need the Team Foundation Client installed on your machine. You'll find it on the Team foundation server CD.
