TeamWork communication

After AVG Anti-Virus or AVG Internet Security products are installed on the computer, using TeamWork might not be possible. (with the default AVG settings) These products can block even the possibility of managing the BIM Server running on the local computer.

A possible error message on the client side that indicates this problem on the server: You do not have Administrator access to this server

To allow the TeamWork related communication through its Online Shield:

  • Open AVG Anti-Virus
  • Open Online ShieldAVG.png
  • Go to Tools / Advanced settings...Online.png
  • Within Web Protection there is a list where you can exclude host/IP/domain addresses
  • Enter your server's address here
  • Or use 127.0.0.1 if the server runs on the local computerWebProtection.png
