Yes, although the protocol itself you don't have to worry about, which is part of the coolness of this. Yes, the idea is to allow more third-party apps. ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Change Domains

  I recently migrated my BETA3 TFS install to a new domain.  Everything went fairly smoothly, but I'm having one problem that I'm unable to fix.  I cannot change the user assigned to the [SERVER]\Service Accounts group.  The group has a single read-only member: the TFSSERVICE user from the domain the server has left. TFS seems to be working okay with this account as is for Source Control.  However, when I try and create a new Team Project, I get an error that I don't have sufficient priveledges to do this.  Unfortunately, I'm writing this post from home so I don't have the exact text of the error message, but I su ...Show All

• .NET Development Single .NET executable - linkers

  The guys at http://thinstall.com/  claim that with their product, you can create a single .NET executable, and run it directly off a CD-ROM, or just copy it to any location, whether the .NET framework is installed or not. Any experiences Thanks, Eyvind. I think the legal implications must have been handled by now -- this product has been out a while. Security is an issue, but it has always been the same with all statically linked applications. The fact is, one barrier to .NET adoption is installation of the framework! Most reasons for not wanting to install are stupid, but you cannot change that. ...Show All
