Edit: Ok, after talking with Khushboo and given Niels’s comment, it’s clear that the article I linked to is woefully out of date. Please ignore this post. If you want to perform nightly builds with Team Foundation Server, tfsbuild.exe is the tool to use.

I was able to schedule nightly builds using tfsbuild.exe included with beta 3 (not in beta 2?) The documentation is slightly off, but still it’s very easy to set up a scheduled build.
Since you now post this link to a beta 2 article does that mean that the tfsbuild.exe is inadquate – or is not making it into the RTM?
Niels,
I didn’t realise the article referenced Beta 2, I just found it via someone else’s blog. My bad! I’ll check with the Team Build folks by email and see what the deal is.

Hi Neils
We absolutely have tfsbuild.exe shipping in RTM and as you mention that would be the right way to schedule nightly builds. As you point out – this was missing in the beta2 bits.

Do you know the URL where I can download Team Builder. I am trying to set this up on a dedicate machine.
