TFS and Sharepoint

To install TFS you must have Sharepoint Services 2.0 installed on the same server. Even though there hacks that allow you to integrate TFS with Sharepoint 3.0 that could be installed on another server, there still certain restrictions in place. One of them is Sharepoint naming conventions for when you install TFS:

Application Pool Name: TFSWSS (use TFSSERVICE account)

Application Pool Name: TFSWSSADMIN (use TFSSERVICE account)

Configuration Database Name: STS_Config_TFS

Content Database Name: STS_Content_TFS

Username to use: TFSSERVICE account

 

You can change those names later on though. Hopefully this issue will be addressed in Orcas…
