Users and Groups
On the VaultAdmin Users and Groups
tab, you can add, modify, or delete users and groups.
SolidWorks Workgroup PDM is distributed with three users:
pdmwadmin, user_r,
and user_w. The password for user_r
and user_w is pdmworks. The password
for the administrator account is pdmwadmin.
The administrator account has access to all administrative functions,
but the two user accounts only have access as clients to the Sample
project. For security reasons, we recommend that you change the password
for the administrator as soon as possible.
User names are case-insensitive.
Passwords
are case sensitive and encrypted.
Users can belong to any number of groups. Users
are given the highest access possible, so if users are given read-only
access in one group but write access in another group, they have write
access. However, specific user privilege takes precedence over any access
granted to a group. For example, if a group is given write access and
a user who is a member of the group is specifically given read only access,
the user has only read access.
