I'm new to Microsoft TFS and it seems like the default of TFS is connect via a Local Area Network (LAN).
Another team member lives in a different part of the world. How can I allow him to connect to my TFS Server, which is installed on a Vista Machine so we can share the sam开发者_开发问答e project?
You can either open up port 8080, or install SSL for TFS. You can find more information how to access TFS remotely at http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb668967.aspx. It is an article for TFS 2005, but it still applies.
Simplest is to set up a VPN, let the user log onto your network and then access the TFS server as you would locally. This is the way I do it; saves the hassle and security headaches of trying to expose TFS over the internet.
