Hello,

I am a BizSpark member and setting up a team software development environment.  It appears I will have to open my Team Foundation Server to the outside for certain aspects.

1) As I have been studying how to set that up I came across Forefront.  I don't really know anything about Forefront and I am first wondering if this is something I need to install/engage for my situation.

2) Assuming I need to start working with Forefront I would appreciate recommendations for books/tutorials that can get one up to speed quickly and efficiently.

Thanks.

Best Regards,

Alan

Hi,

if you want to publish internal applications / websites to the Internet you can use Forefront TMG and UAG, but keep in mind that this products has been discontinued:

As a possible alternative you can use the WAP if you don't need all security capabilities of Forefront TMG/UAG

Hi Marc,

Thanks so much for your answer.  Certainly saves me a lot of time researching.
