Why can't I connect to Team Foundation Server?

I had installed VS2008 and VS2008SP1 on my machine a few month ago and today I tried to install TFC again installed VS2008SP1.

But when I try to connect to another machine within domain which my computer belongs to, I get this error message:

"TF31002 Unable to connect to this Team Foundation Server......"

I should say that I use WinXP sp2 as the OS.

what is the problem?

Are the users in the TFS Licensed Users group?
Our administrator had installed Workgroup Edition and not added everyone to the group. :(

If TFS and VSTS2008 are installed on the same PC, they won't work properly unless you install them in exactly the right order.

Beyond that, something could be misconfigured - without more information it is impossible to say what. The main problems are usually with permissions. TFS uses a number of log files for the various subsystems it runs, and they can be a big help in tracking down where problems lie.

Most likely this is a permissions issue. You'll need to log on to the Team Foundation Server using whatever account you used to install it, and grant rights to yourself to connect.

Also, here's a link on another forum that may hold answers for you if I'm wrong.
