I have an application that we use internally that is deployed through ClickOnce. We have 5 locations that I deploy the Install to manually by changing the Location Settings and running the Publish 5 times.
We have TFS 2010 but I am unfamiliar with using it for anything besides Source Control. I would like to explore the possibility of using Team Foundation Server (2010) to accomplish this. Is this something TFS is capable of doing if configured correctly?
Take a peek into MSBuild and its XML based schema/configuration. At a previous position, I had a MSBuild task setup to push out ClickOnce deployments with ease, once you nailed one getting the 4 others would be simple repetition. I recall MSBuild having a bit of a learning curve.

I don’t doubt that TFS has something useful for MSBuild, an GUI based setup perhaps, but I cannot say.
