We were recently required to put all web trafic under SSL and now we are unable to have our VS.NET 2003 clients to connect to TFS.

    I was able to get it to work with the version 1.1 of the MSSCCI plugin. Didn't work for me with the v1 of the product.

    What command line commands should I test for this

    Yes, I can connect to the TFS server using SSL with the MSSCCI 1.1.

    I was referring to the MSSCCI version, not the Team Explorer version. We will upgrade all of our clients to use the lastest version of the MSSCCI plugin. I wasn't aware that there was a newer version out there. Thanks.

    The latest version of the Msscci provider is 1.1. I was refering to tf.exe - tfs command line tool.

    If I understand correctly you cannot connect to TFS using Msscci 1.0 - is there any reason that is blocking you from upgrading to 1.1 We haven't done any changes in authorization code between 1.0 and 1.1 if I remember correctly, so it should still work, but 1.1 contains important bugfixes.

    Hello,

    can you verify that you can connect to the server using Team Explorer and command line

    Thanks

    To elaborate my question:

    • can you connect to this TFS server using SSL using the command line and Team Explorer (or Visual Studio 2005)
    • can you connect to TFS server using SSL using Msscci 1.1
    • by v1 you mean Team Explorer or Msscci If Msscci, is there any reason why not use the latest version

    Thanks
