2. After installing Teamsite base release v6.7.1 with the license key, reboot the server and during the loading of window, Interwoven TS dialog bow will pop up with status message saying to wait awhile while TS configures IIS and adds a default TS user and group to AD.

3. After rebooting the server for the first time after installing TS, ensure that virtual Y drive has been created and ensure that the following 6 TS services are running (Control panel->administrative tool->services):

Interwoven Event Subsystem

If any of the TS service is not running and/or Y drive has not been created, type "iwreset -a" in command prompt.

Note: The list of all available users displayed in TeamSite are retreieve from Active Directory or LDAP. So if you want to add a user in TeamSite but is not displayed in TS, you need to add that new user in AD/LDAP first. Always reset TS or reboot the server everytime you have added a new AD/LDAP user so that TS will be updated with the list of new users from AD/LDAP.

7. Add a new TS group. Add existing members (created from step 6) and managers to the TS group.
