Add User to Team Foundation Service Accounts Group in TFS

Securityteam-foundation-server

I need to add a user to the "Team Foundation Service Accounts" group in TFS to be able to run the TFS Integration Tool.

I am an administrator on both the machine running TFS and the TFS Install (ie I am in the TFS Administrators group).

When I try to do that using the Team Foundation Server Administration Console the add option is grayed out.

Any ideas on how to do this?

you might want to use tfssecurity.exe command for this purpose. At least, this is the default approach. MS decided to make it not that easy to add someone to this group to keep the number of "global god-users" low. :-)
