  Hi, I followed the step by step guides to installing the workgroup edition. It was installed on a fresh win2k3 server.

  Hi all We have this occasional problem whereby checking out a file doesn't get the latest, subsequently resulting in us having to merge our changes due to the file being different on TFS.
