Biography
I'm an Australian Cloud Developer Advocate specializing in DevOps. I'm currently based in Toronto, Canada, but will be moving back to Australia - the land of the dangerous creatures and beautiful beaches - in 2018.
Formerly a dev at Octopus Deploy and a Microsoft MVP, I have a background in software development and consulting in a broad range of industries. In Australia, I co-organised the Brisbane .Net User Group, and launched the now annual DDD Brisbane conference. I regularly speak at conferences, User Groups, and other events around the world, and I've been an occasional guest on various podcasts like .NET Rocks and Hanselminutes.
Most of the time you'll find me talking to developers and IT Pros to help them get the most out of their DevOps strategies.

Deploying to On-Premises Servers with VSTS
Are you talking about using Release Management in TFS rather than VSTS? If so - it will work if you're on a recent-enough version (the docs say TFS 2018).
If you're talking about whether you can do this from VSTS/TFS Build (rather than Release), the answer is no. Deployments should really be handled with Release Management (or another tool if you like) rather than Build - separating the creation of an artifact and actually deploying and promoting it between environments is really important in a good DevOps strategy. There's some good information about why on the 12 Factor App page.
Team Foundation Build Custom Tasks
@Chris Eelmaa:
Hi Chris,
The version number for the release is tied to the version number of the Nuget Package pushed to Octopus. Using OctoPack means the Nuget Package version (in this case) is given the version of the assembly in the project being compiled.
You can set the Release numbering format in the Project Settings page in Octopus Deploy.
I hope that helps,
Damian Brady
