The biggest issue was how the proxy keep track of that the request for a file from source control is from an authorized user. I didn't know the answer so I posted a question on our internal mail alias.</P> <P>I got an excellent answer from <A class="" href="http://blogs.msdn.com/roberthorvick/" mce_href="http://blogs.msdn.com/roberthorvick/">Robert Horvick</A>, one of the many skilled people in the TFS product group who described the interaction for me.</P> <P>Since I was interested in the answer I thought someone else might be as well so I created a Visio drawing describing it and I thought I post it here.</P> <P><IMG style="WIDTH: 805px; HEIGHT: 629px" height=629 src="http://blogs.msdn.com/photos/chrniel/images/9244397/original.aspx" width=805 align=top mce_src="http://blogs.msdn.com/photos/chrniel/images/9244397/original.aspx"></P><img src="http://blogs.msdn.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=9244422" width="1" height="1">TFSTFS Source controlTFS ProxyDeployment
