Connect to Team Foundation Server

tfsvisual-studio-2008

I have 2 machines, one at Location A and the other at Location B. The B machine is connected to A's newtwork via VPN. VS2008 Team System is installed on both machines. The A machine has a menu option under Tools > Connect to Team Foundation Server… but the B machine does not have this option.

Is there something that I've missed in the installation of VS2008TS on the B machine? How does one enable this menu item?

Have you installed Team Explorer? It's a separate install.

Moving multiple files in TFS Source Control

Use the tf.exe tool from the Visual studio commandline - it can handle wildcards:

tf.exe move <olditem> <newitem>

Example:

tf.exe move "$/My Project/V*" "$/My Project/Archive"

[EDIT] As noted in the comments: move is an alias for rename. Both commands move history.

Most likely this is a permissions issue. You'll need to log on to the Team Foundation Server using whatever account you used to install it, and grant rights to yourself to connect.

Also, here's a link on another forum that may hold answers for you if I'm wrong.
