TFS uses Active Directory to get user and user group properties.
To use TFS from a different Domain, the trusts need to be set up properly between the two domains, so that the TFS service account can retrieve user properties from the other domain.
However, reconfiguring a large network is not always an option.
So a way around this is:
1. create a user for every developer in the same domain as TFS. We will call this domain TfsDomain.
2. developers who work in a different domain from TFS, should run Visual Studio under their TfsDomain account, using the Windows runas command.
