Log into a Vault

To work with a vault, you must log into the Vault server. You must have an account established for you to log into the vault. It is important to log into the server with a unique user name and password assigned by the server administrator to maintain a secure working environment. Contact the administrator of your server for your account information and server location.

Log into a Vault

  1. Choose File > Vault Server > Log In. The Autodesk Vault Log In dialog box appears.
  2. Enter the user name and password assigned to you by your vault administrator.
  3. Enter the name of the computer where the server is installed.
  4. Enter the name of the vault database you want to log into.

    The names of the last several databases that were accessed are retained in the drop-down list. You can select the name of the vault from the list or click the expansion button to see the complete list of previously accessed vaults. If you do not know the name of the vault, contact your system administrator.

  5. To log into the server automatically next time you start Alias, select the Automatically log in next session check box.

When you are logged into a vault, Vault Status displays in the Alias address bar.
