Access TFS via www

Question

Hello,

I posted my question in the German forum earlier this year, but unfortunately not received any solution.

I have a Win7 64bit with TFS 2010 in my apartment near the university. From home I cansuccessfully connect via VPN and then use the TFS "remote".

Now, however, I have a university project with multiple team members and would like toallow them access to my TFS, but not via VPN.

The TFS is running with me are on port 9090 and my firewall and open firewall for this port. For testing, I've also opened the default website (port 9000).

The connection seems to work via DynDNS. I am prompted to enter my credentials. I am giving this one and then confirm, opens the password entry form again. Without an error. I can not type what I want and as often as I want, it will appear again and again thepassword entry form.

On the internet I've read that I need to enable basic authentication. However, this has not brought success.

UPDATE: Via Visual Studio Connect to Team Collection I get error after password entry form: TF31003. I'm Admin on this Mashine and my account is bind to application tier in team foundation server console.

Can someone help me here?

Best regards,
Matthias Meyer

Your browser is not passing along your user credentials correctly or you are logged in using an account that isn't part of the TFS domain group. So, you need to add TFS URL to the trusted sites list located in IE options.
