Administrator Login

The default Administrator's account in Teamwork Server is:

  • Login name: Administrator
  • Password: Administrator

We recommend changing the Administrator's password to prevent illegal access.

For more information, see the Managing Teamwork Server section.

Teamwork Server Administrator's ConsoleA remote connection for Teamwork Server status observation and administrative control. The server holds information about active users and loaded projects. The Administrator can shut down or restart the server, change its properties, and view log files (including debug information) for the server and separate projects.

Foreign projectA project transferred from its home server after synchronization. A foreign project cannot be modified on the server to which it was transferred. However, it can be browsed, analyzed, selected for report generation, and used in other projects on that server. A foreign project can have domestic (editable) branches.
