Merry Christmas everyone !
I've installed Team Foundation Server 2010 with advanced configuration but I left the settings as default (like Service Account: NT AUTHORITY\LOCAL SERVICE and others)...
All good until when I typed http://localhost:8080/tfs and there it asks me to provide username and password.
What is the default username and password ? I didn't provide any username and/or password during configuration.
I typed as my Windows account name but it doesn't work.
Help me please...
Thank you

TFS uses Window's accounts for its permissions. If you're logging in on a workstation setup, rather than one linked to AD then remember you need to specify your machine name as part of the username, for example MACHINE\michaels.
In order to setup new projects you will need to first start off using an administrator account - if your normal username isn't a Windows administrator, then login using your admin username and password (you can then grant permissions to your normal account. You can also use the Windows security groups on the machine to add yourself - there will be a local group called "Team Foundation Administrators". MSDN has a list of the Windows groups you can configure.
it is the windows login , password and u can set it in the administration panel also .
UPDATE - mine was ashutosh-pc\ashutosh and my windows password
You have set your service account to LOCAL SERVICE. Please change this to NETWORK SERVICE. The login box you are getting is not to login TFS, but to get access to your machine resources. The LOCAL SERVICE account does not have enough permissions to operate TFS.
If you don't have NETWORK SERVICE, then use a regular windows account.
See for more information the TFS 2010 Install Guide.
Yeah definitely it works using your windows account, but in my case I have my hotmail email account linked to my windows.. so, I just used my email address and the password for this, I am sharing an screenshot, this is the firs default page after logged in.

On my new Windows 10, as I am trying to install Jenkins, I encountered following prompt:
Since I don't know what local or domain user creds to enter, I keep on getting following error:
Error logging on DESKTOP-xxxx\user: The user name or password is incorrect
From reading the official doc, I am understanding that this is something new that Jenkins installer is doing for running as a Windows service, but where do I find these credentials on Windows?
Most of the applications when installed on Windows OS may want to run as a service using either the local system account or a specific account which needs specific permissions on the OS. Please use any local admin account which already there on the system where you are trying to install Jenkins. If the system is joined to a domain, prefer to use an domain account which has admin privileges on the system.
The worst advice to grand admin permissions for a single service.
You need to use local existing credentials from your windows system (if it's not connected to a domain) or a domain creds. Don't use admin creds for the installation.
I setup Remote Desktop Connection and the computer says: AzureAD\username already has access:
Very good, let's try to connect using AzureAD\username:
Unfortunately it says:
Your credential did not work. Remote machine is AAD joined. If you are
signing in to your work account, try using your work email address.
Of course it didn't work. Any idea?
To successfully connect to an AzureAD joined computer using Remote Desktop, you will need to first save your connection settings to a .rdp file.
To do this, open the Remote Desktop Connection program, enter the IP Address or computer name, then click the "Save As" button at the bottom of the screen. Save it someplace convenient, since we'll need to edit this file by hand.
Next, Right-Click the saved .rdp file and open with Notepad.
Go to the very bottom of the file, add the following lines:
enablecredsspsupport:i:0
authentication level:i:2
Save the file and close.
Now, try double clicking the modified .rdp file and login using the format:
AzureAD\YourFullUsername
Screenshots, original information and credit go to bradleyschacht.com
As an updated answer, the solution is to simply open up the options for the connection, go to the Advanced tab, and check "Use a web account to sign in to the remote computer".
As long as RDP is enabled on the remote machine and the user you are trying to logon is with authorized, it should work.
The Azure Active Directory username is not exactly clear though.
Joined computer via 'FirstName#domain.com', an Azure Active Directory domain account.
Computer shows 'AzureAD\FirstNameLastName' as authorized for RDP since it's an administrator account.
Must use 'AzureAD\FirstName#domain.com' for RDP username.
No other settings changes needed, no manual editing of RDP file just had to get the username right.
from your window, it doesn't seem like you logged in with an azuread account, try with francescomantovani#yourazureaddomain.com as a username?
as per here:https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/client-management/connect-to-remote-aadj-pc
When you connect to the remote PC, enter your account name in this
format: AzureAD UPN. The local PC must either be domain-joined or
Azure AD-joined. The local PC and remote PC must be in the same Azure
AD tenant.
For some reason the old remote desktop connection application was throwing the same error. I tried connecting through new remote desktop application( included in windows 10 ), it connected without any problem.
The issue is related to the password, which we have set at the time of the creation of VM.
That password doesn't meet the complexity criteria that we didn't get informed about while setting the username & password firstly. Therefore we need to reset the password.
1). click on created VM --> choose reset Password from the side menu.
2). This time they will tell us about constraints for setting the password.
3). Choose the appropriate password.
4). Now login via this format as below:
username : <publicIpOfVM>/<username>
password: newPassword
I have changed domain of my windows pc out of curiosity. Now I can not login to enterprise account using this laptop. I need to change domain of my laptop back to its original domain.
You will have to login to the PC. I would try a local account.
When trying to login to a local account user the following for the user. This will use the local account.
Username: .\User
Side note: You will need to contact your help desk to get reconnected to your enterprise account as you need admin privileges to the domain to add a computer to it. Help desk should have a local account login and password as well.
Hope this helps!
How can I configure Visual Studio remote debugging when:
My developer machine is a member of an AD domain, and my username is "DevelopersName".
The "remote" machine is on the same Ethernet segment, but is not part of the domain.
The "remote" machine must run software under "RemoteUserName".
Most documentation I can find suggests that you need have both machines in the same domain and with identical usernames. That's not possible here.
I could possibly add my username to "remote", but the software still needs to run under "RemoteUserName.
If it helps, I could add 2nd network card to my developer machine and directly connect the "remote" machine.
Using VS2008, but will be moving soon to VS2010.
Thank you.
Sorry, but I've just spent the last 10 hours trying to debug your exact problem. My findings are not good.
You need to get your accounts synced, especially if you are using your remote app to connect to other systems in your SOA environment, ie: Sharepoint, AD.
You can to some extent get remote debugging to work, if you create an account on your local machine with the same name as that of your remote machine (lets do it like this rather rather than working with the domain account).
You then need to make sure the remote service is running under this account, and its a member of the administrators group. And by this I mean hold down control, and right click run as - with the remote debugger, and select the user (not required if remote server is logged in as the required user).
Run the wizard it will open the required ports, use Authentication, because non authentication won't debug managed code. Breakpoints are never met, and there is nothing you can do about this.
On your local dev machine, log off your domain account, and log onto the local account with matching name as the account on server thats running the remote service.
Now you stand a change of remote debugging. If you can't do any of the above, sorry there is no workaround, its entirely dependent on the user account and having the right permissions.
If you don't want to create a local account, try starting our debugger via command prompt using the following command:
runas /user:[user#machinename] /netonly [debugger.exe]
E.g.:
runas /user:john#mypc123 /netonly devenv.exe
I assume it's managed debugging you're talking about (for native debugging there's a remote debugging solution with no authentication). In this case, I would suggest that you use a local user to launch the debugger on your machine. If this local user's name and password match "RemoteUserName"'s name and password, it should work.
(Note that this does not preclude you from using the AD account to log in to your workstation, you just need to set up another account and use runas to launch Visual Studio.)
I have just installed Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition and therefore IIS6 (comes as standard). I have also install the windows component that enable the administration of IIS from the browser (https://server:8098/). The problem I have is that I have to log-in to this tool but the Server Administrator u/name and p/word does not let me in.
The Windows documentation on this tool (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/324282) says "You are prompted for a user name and password that exist on the Web Server" but none of the standard user acounts on the server let me in.
Thanks,
Here are a couple ideas:
Take a look at the security log on the server for clues.
Look at the "Directory Security" tab on the properties of the admin site and ensure "Enable anonymous access" is unchecked. You will need to use "Integrated Windows authentication" or "Basic authentication". If you use Basic auth then the password is sent across then network base64 encoded - you will want to use SSL to encrypt it.
Is there a specific requirement to use the web tools? You can download Internet Information Services (IIS) 6.0 Manager for Windows XP from Microsoft and run it from a client.
I'm not so sure now, haven't set up a Win 2003 box in a while but as far as I remember you have to activate remote desktop first and then you can use a RDP client to access the server. I recommend that over the ActiveX RDP client.
Is the server part of a domain? It may be defaulting to a domain username/password combo rather than a local username/password.
Try "server.domain.local\administrator" or "administrator#server.domain.local".
I would check the permissions on that site in IIS - make sure you are using an account that is a member of a group specifically assigned permissions. I understand that the builtin admin account is not working but its possible the site permissions have changed removing that account or group. - hope that makes some sort of sense
This might be unlikely, but are you trying to use a username that has a blank password? Windows restricts remote access when using those accounts.
If that's the case, you can check the Group Policy (gpedit.msc for local computer, or the one for domains if it's in a domain.):
Computer Configuration
Windows Settings
Security Settings
Local Policies
Accounts: Limit local account use of blank passwords to console logon only
