vInstalling and maintaining the TeamConnection server

vMaintaining and backing up the database used by TeamConnection

Note: On UNIX systems, the system administrator must also have root access to the host machine.

Family administrator

vPlanning and con®guring TeamConnection for one or more families

vManaging user access to one or more families
