TeamSpeak 3 (TS3) server administrators often need to grant administrative permissions to other users to help manage the server. This process involves assigning specific server group permissions to chosen users. This guide outlines the steps to achieve this efficiently and securely.

Understanding Server Groups and Permissions

Before granting admin permissions, it's crucial to understand the TS3 server group system. Server groups are collections of users who share the same permissions. Assigning a user to a specific server group automatically grants them the associated permissions. Admin permissions are typically bundled within a dedicated server group, often labeled "Administrators" or similar. You may need to create this group if one doesn't already exist.

Steps to Grant Admin Permissions

1. Accessing the Server Query:

You need access to the TeamSpeak 3 server query. This allows you to manage the server remotely using text commands. The query port is usually different from the client port (typically 10011). Consult your server's configuration for the correct query port. You'll also require the query password, set during server setup.

2. Connecting to the Query:

Use a TeamSpeak 3 query client (or a terminal if you are comfortable with command-line interfaces) to connect to the server query using the server address and query port. Provide the query password when prompted.

3. Identifying the Admin Group (or Creating One):

Determine if an "administrator" group already exists. If not, create one using the following command structure (replace Admin Group with your desired group name):

servergroupaddgroupid=1 name="Admin Group"

Note: The groupID is assigned automatically; you can use servergrouplist to view existing groups and their IDs.

4. Assigning Permissions to the Admin Group:

Admin permissions encompass various actions, including kicking, banning, and modifying server settings. Grant the necessary permissions to your admin group using the servergroupaddperm command. Consult the TeamSpeak 3 server query command documentation for a complete list of available permissions and their respective identifiers. A few essential permissions include:

• Server modification: This allows admins to change various server settings.
• Client management: This includes kicking, banning, and muting clients.
• Channel management: This permits the creation, deletion, and modification of channels.

Example command to add the permission to kick clients:

servergroupaddperm sgid=1 permid=70

Where sgid is the server group ID and permid is the permission ID (check the documentation for the correct ID for "kick client"). Repeat this command for each required permission.

5. Adding Users to the Admin Group:

Finally, add the intended users to the newly created (or existing) admin group using the servergroupaddclient command:

servergroupaddclient sgid=1 cldbid=UNIQUE_CLIENT_DATABASE_ID

Replace sgid with the admin group's ID and cldbid with the unique database ID of the client you wish to promote to administrator. You can obtain a client's database ID through the query interface or the server's client list.

6. Verification:

After completing these steps, the user should have the specified admin permissions. Test the user's permissions to ensure they have the intended access levels.

Important Security Considerations

• Strong Query Password: Use a strong and unique password for the server query.
• Permission Management: Grant only the necessary permissions to maintain security. Avoid granting excessive privileges.
• Regular Audits: Periodically review and adjust group permissions to ensure ongoing security.

By carefully following these instructions, you can successfully grant admin permissions in your TeamSpeak 3 server, enabling effective management and collaboration among your team. Remember to always consult the official TeamSpeak 3 documentation for the most up-to-date information on commands and permission IDs.
