Prevent Lync 2010 Web App From Running

I am an SCCM administrator and have been placed with the task of trying to figure out a means by which to prevent some users that have been abusing IM from using MS Lync. I have already setup the desktop support team with a device collection that they
can place any machine into to uninstall MS Lync and Lync Group Chat 2010 from that machine. However, the desktop support team also wants to prevent these users from access to the MS Lync Web App, which I am having difficulties trying to figure out some way
to block this addin from installing/running. We had already inquired with our exchange team and they refused to delete Lync access from the problem users' AD accounts because they felt that it would be too difficult to manage and I don't have access to Exchange,
so I can't change their Lync access from the account administration end. Is there a way to prevent the Lync 2010 Web App from installing/running via SCCM configuration baseline and/or GPO? Thanks to anyone who can provide some suggestions.

You can't disable it using SCCM or GPO because it's web application. You can disable it from Lync Server.
To disable Lync Web App, You can check below link

Hi,
Did the issue happen only for you or for multiple users?
Did the Lync server 2013 migration from Lync server 2010 successfully or the Lync environment still a coexistence environment?
Please check if simple URLs (Meeting URL) update to the Lync server 2013 in Lync Server Control Panel.

Lync 2013 Web App Sharing not working.

We are having a problem with Lync Web App 2013. Our external customers can open the meeting link and join the meeting without a problem. Once they are in the meeting an internal user begins the presentation by sharing his screen. The Lync
Web App just says "Loading..." for the external customer. The internal presenter sees this external customer continually change from "in collaboration session" to "not in collaboration session". The external customer
is never actually shown the screen share.
Other notes:
-->We tried this from an external wireless hotspot and it worked fine, thus, it seems something in this customer's company firewall that is blocking it.
-->We also tried sharing a powerpoint (we have a functional office web apps server), which produced the same results.
-->When we used the Lync 2010 Web App (before we upgraded to 2013), everything seemed to work fine, thus I am concluding that the 2013 Lync Web App (since it has more capabilities) is somehow trying to use more ports or something.
-->Internally, the Lync Web app works fine.
So, I assume something in the customer's company's firewall is blocking some access to Lync 2013 Web App. My question is: what needs to be enabled both on-premise and at the customer's side to access Lync 2013 Web App screen sharing and if the
company (for security reasons) doesn't want to open extra ports, is there some work around to force Lync Web App to use port 443 for screen sharing.
Thanks,
Adam

The ports 1024-65535 * are used for application sharing.
You can configure the port ranges for Lync clients.
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj204760.aspx
You can’t use 443 as port 443 is used for HTTPs.

Lync 2013 web app login prompt

Hi.
I have some trouble with Lync 2013 web app. When the page is loaded, it always prompt for credentials.
I understand, that from LAN it try to use user credentials, but from the external it is problematic.
We use TMG as reverse proxy. Is there any way, how to remove prompt for external sites ?
Thanks

The login dialog is by design, you can’t remove the prompt.
As most external users can access successfully, I think the problem is on the client side.
Please check the supported platforms for Lync Web App at
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg425820.aspx
Please check if the issue always happens to the problem Lync account.
Check if the issue happens to multiple Lync account on the same computer.
Check if the issue happens to the same Lync account on another computer.

How to Disable Lync 2013 Web app link in Lync meeting

I want disable Lync 2013 Web App , because it is confuse WinXP user(no sound suuport) , I reference the topic(Disable Lync Web App link) but not work in 2013 version. How can I disable that?

I assume you're referring to this link:
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/lync/en-US/33fbfa3f-e7dd-43a7-85f4-43c280e17d4f/disable-lync-web-app-link?forum=ocsconferencing
That was an unsupported but clever hack that we developed by the user asking the question. There is not supported method for doing this in Lync 2013.
If it's an audio only meeting, I'd suggest removing the URL completely from each individual the meeting invite before sending it out. If it's not, then the WinXP user would either need Lync, which they would then automatically join with anyway, or
they wouldn't in which case sending them the meeting invite wouldn't help.

How do I stop apps from running in the background on my 4s

How do I stop apps from running in background on my iPhone 4s? I double tap the home button and the running apps will move right and left but no "x" appears to stop them from running.

Very few apps actually run in the background:

As the article explains, force quitting an app is different under iOS 8.

How can i stop apps from running in the background with the new ios7 update

Double tap the Home button...slide the last used view of the app(above the icon) up. Tap Home button when finished.

I need an app that stops background apps from running when phone is sleeping

i need and app that stops background apps (or maybe all apps) from running when phone is sleeping. thx!

Too bad. When I had a Droid there was an app that you could set which apps to quit and which to leave running. Just convenient rather than having to go through the apps bar repeatedly and quit apps individually. It is not an intrusion to control the phone or quit other running apps... it's my choice... Ooops! My mistake. Forgot that I no longer have free will in what I do. The Company knows better.

How do you stop apps from running on the iPad with the new ios7?

How do you stop apps from running on the IPad with the new ios7? I have an app for animation that pops up a message to stop other apps from running. If I press onto a app and it starts shaking there are no -, just x's.

Close inactive apps
1. Double tap the home button to bring up the multi-tasking view
2. Swipe the app's windows upwards to close
3. The app will fly off the screen

Stop more than one instance of app from running

hi,
is there any way to stop more than one version of an application from running? i've seen topics on singelton but i'm not sure if that's what i need, i'm a little confused on that. what i need to do is stop the main app from running if it's already running, not some object within the app. something like being able to run only one instance of ms word. i was thinking about using a file, writing to it and deleting it when the app closes, so if the file exists the new instance will know something is running and not run, but the problem is if the app crashes because of windows, i won't be able to delete that file. any ideas?
Thanks.

1. The app should implement a special tiny server it tries to start on a specific range of private ports.
The Well Known Ports are those from 0 through 1023.
The Registered Ports are those from 1024 through 49151
The Dynamic and/or Private Ports are those from 49152 through 65535
- http://www.iana.org/assignments/port-numbers
2. When the app starts, it tries to find a server already running on one of your defined ports, connect and listen for a special message you can choose: "app xyz by soni29 already running".
If found, the application displays a message and terminates.
Otherwise it starts the server and continues.

How to deploy web app from PC to Linux with Netbeans ?

I am developing a web app in Netbeans 6.0 on my PC, using the Tomcat comes with the IDE, now I need to deploy it to a Linux server running Tomcat, can I do it from inside the IDE ? Can it copy all the servlets and other java classes to the Linux for me ? If so, what info does it need from me ? Login, password ... ?
If not, how can I do it by hand ?
Frank

RTFM
You need to consult the NetBeans Help to see if it will export a WAR/EAR. Regarding getting it over to Linux, there are some issues there. But if you have visibility to the Linux deploy directory from your PC then it's possible. It's certainly possible to do ALL of this using Apache Ant.

Launching Web App from externally...HELP!!

hi everyone,
I am using the application server 8.2 that is bundled with JSC2. I was wondering if there was a tutorial anywhere, or if someone can describe a procedure, for giving access to a web application from outside ther server's network.
Currently, our app server is running on Windows Server 2003 Web Edition. We have routers and firewalls that have configured to allow access to the certain ports on the server.
How do i tell the server to redirect requests to my application's home page when accesses across the internet. Right now, the only way i know how to access the application is either using http://localhost ... or the server's IP address. this only allows access from the server itself or from a PC on the same network as ther server.
I have other similar posts as this in this section and the seciton for JSC2. they have gone unanswered.
thank you all!

So what you're saying is that when the network admins allow external access to server by congifuring the routers and firewalls, i should be able to access the application using the static IP address with the app's name? there would be nothing to configure in app server 8.2?
many thanks!!

Stop a stand-alone and web app from starting in an App Server

I want to programmatically shut down an application from starting, e.g., mid-way in its start, if a certain condition is raised. I do not want code as System.exit(int) as this API will terminate the entire JVM and more than 1 application running in the JVM will be shut down. My goal is to stop the start process of only one application that is running in the same shared JVM. The JVM is running more than 1 application.
Obviously, throwing a Runtime exception (throw new RuntimeException())does not stop the application - application still gets started.
I want a solution that will work for both stand-alone application and a web application. However, if I have to use two different approaches (one approach for stand-alone, another for web), I will be fine with that approach.
I am using WebSphere 6.1 as application server.
Please suggest what are my options to stop the application from start for both stand-alone and web application.

There is of course no general solution to that.
Consider the following.
1. Initial thread starts 10 threads, and then it exits.
2. One thread determines that exit should occur.
3. How do other threads get terminated?
...and a web application.Conceptually that is a bit suspect. If you don't want it to run then the simple solution is don't install it. In general you don't want a web app to "exit" if a known error condition occurs. For example it shouldn't exit if the database connection fails but instead the behavior should change until the database connection is restored.

Setting a HttpSession on a web app from a client application

Hi all,
Using jnlp or applet, i will run a JFrame app which scans an image using the client's scanner and will send this image back to the web app, and continue to use the web app. They do not want to manually upload the image.
I've completed running the jnlp on the client side and have gotten the image through scanning, my question is..
How do i set this object as a HttpSession so that back at the web app, my servlet can get this session object?
Well, I can open a HttpURLConnection to my web server, but how do i set the session object from the client app.
Thanks.

I've personally done this before. The solution I used was to send the image from an Applet to a Servlet via ObjectOutputStream and ObjectInputStream. Search for "applet servlet communication"
