• Visual Studio Team System Rename TFS Server

  The Team Foundation Administrators Guide has a section titled "How to: Rename the Data Tier, Application Tier, or Active Directory Server or Client", but there is no content in it yet.  Anyone have any success in doing this   Is there a tool to be used to facilitate this, or do you need to edit configuration files by hand.  If the latter, does anyone have a list of the files that need to be edited Yes this is B3, but I was refering to the fact that the documentation is late or non-existant in places. Yes, TfsAdminUtil does ship (on the AT) with B3. ...Show All

• .NET Development XsltCompiledTransform exceptions

  I'm looking for opinions on this. XsltCompiledTransform can throw a System.Xml.Xsl. XslLoadException. The problem is that the class is an internal class. Instead I have to catch XsltException. Now I guess I was expecting to be able to catch XslLoadException since it is being thrown. It just doesn't seem normal that I can't catch a specific exception that is thrown. Maybe others have run into that situation before and I haven't been doing .Net development long enough but this is the first time I have run into a situation where a specific exception is being thrown that I can't catch. XslLoadException dervies from XsltException so I can catch ...Show All

• .NET Development Why am I getting WSE2008: KerberosToken is expected but not present in the security header of the incoming message.

  I'm working with a WSE3 client and WSE3 server. I'm getting the above error when my client tries to call a Web Service method on the server. Debugging the problem, I tried using the QuickStart WSSecurityKerberos Policy sample. When I use the QuickStart sample everything works just fine (both client and server applications are running on the same Windows 2003 R2 Server machine -- a 64-bit machine w/ 4 Intel Xeon 2.8GHz processors, w/ 4GB of RAM). However, when I take the identical wse3policy.config settings from client and server (each) and put them into a 2nd application on that same machine (also with client app and serve ...Show All

• Visual Basic Method POST to send Data from windows form to ASP web page and get response

• .NET Development .NET & Exchange 5.5

  Hi, There already is a .NET & Exchange 5.5 posting in this forum but I think there is more to discuss about this issue. Any info would be much appreciated.

• Visual C++ Progress Bar assistance

  Any examples out there to test web services that require a client-side certificate using https I created the tests on my local machine without ssl and now am trying to enhance them for our larger test system. Can't record as we are using Smart Client WinForms.  Actually, the problem migh not be the certificate but how to add a FormPostParameter with Username and password. Is this the same in Smart Client forms as in IE Thanks, Burkhard WebTestRequest class has a Certificates collection that you can put client-side certs in. You may be better off writing a unit test to test the web services. ...Show All
