Logging In, Logging Out
Overview
Access to files on a site requires a username and password. The login
information verifies your identity within the system and maintains the security
of your project files.
If you share a computer with another Buzzsaw user, it is recommended that
you log in and out for each session. To access your site without having to
download the software, use Buzzsaw
Web Access (page 5).
The link in the welcome email directs you to the Buzzsaw Welcome page. On
the Welcome page you create a password, select a security question and answer,
and enter your contact information. Next, select an access method: software
access or Buzzsaw Web Access. If the software has previously been installed
on your machine then the Buzzsaw software launches automatically and you
do not select an access method.
Only you know your password. If you forget it, use the I forgot my
password button in the Login dialog box for assistance. If this button is not
available then ask your site administrator to reset your password. In order to
use password assistance you must create a security question and answer in the
Changing Your Member Information (page 17) dialog box.
NOTE Your site administrator may require you to create a strong password. See
Password Requirements (page 443) for more information. If your site administrator
does not require you to create a strong password then your new password must
start with a letter, be at least eight characters long, and contain at least one capital
letter and one number. For example, Changeme1.
After a period of inactivity you will automatically be logged out depending
on the
Security Tab (page 79) specified by the site administrator.
