tfsbuild - Is it possible to install TFS Build Service on Domain server while connecting to TFS server installed on non-Domain server -

my scenario is:

i installed tfs server 2012 (application tie) on server (s1) in workgroup. installed tfs 2012 build service on server (s2) in domain (d1).

i created user (build_user) on both s1 , domain controller of s2 same password.

then started tfs administration console -> build configuration -> configure installed features -> configure build service -> connected tfs server on s1 -> run build service as: "build_user", when clicked "test", passed -> went well. after clicked "configure", got error saying user "d1\build_user" not found.

must install tfs build service on server in workgroup? if not, how should do?

i have similar setup, except tfs server on domain , build servers not. should able set follows:

1. ensure both machines have build_user same password.
2. log build machine build_user
3. load control panel -> credential manager
4. create following credentials:
   • windows credential
     • network address: ip address of tfs server
     • user name: workgropup\build_user
   • generic credential
     • network address: http://addressoftfsserver:8080/
     • user name: workgroup\build_user
   • generic credential
     • network address: http://addressoftfsserver:8080/tfs
     • user name: workgroup\build_user
   • generic credential
     • network address: http://addressoftfsserver:8080/tfs/collectionname
     • user name: workgroup\build_user

the above may need tinkering suit setup, above allows me connect non-domain build server domain tfs server.

i hope helps.
