Hi Dylan,

You might need to use TFSAdminUtil to change some of the values in the service 
registry. OR put domain suffixes on the local machines (if I understand 
correctly).

Subject: Changing a TFS Server Name

We have a TFS server that previously has been accessed via a fully qualified 
domain name eg:
http://ourserver.org.internal:8080

This still works, but new access has been set up for a new domain and a new 
shorter name has been established that is accessible from everywhere on all our 
networks eg:
http://tfs1:8080

I'm looking to fully purge TFS of references to the old domain, but I can't 
remember where the information on doing this lives. Searched MSDN and all I 
came up with was the same old guides to migrating TFS, but we're not doing 
that. It is staying put, but the name of the server can be changed.

Some parts of TFS still remember the old server name, and so they don't work so 
well in the new domain. Also some bits of sharepoint react oddly if you access 
the sharepoint site with the new domain. For instance, opening a "manage 
permissions" screen, which causes the url to change from:
http://tfs1/Sites/ProjectName/SomeOtherGuff...
to
http://ourserver/Sites/ProjectName/SomeOtherGuff...
which doesn't work, as it is not a fully qualified domain name.
