The list of dependencies needs to be installed in local system to start with development.
As a part of prerequisite I got to know below points to start with skype web sdk - skype for business online
Prerequisites :
1. A tenant on Office 365 with a user who is assigned a Skype for Business license.
2. Need to set up a tenant in Azure Active Directory.
Kindly help what exactly points mean and what I have to do to complete these two points ?
You need an Office 365 account license. And then you will have to create users. These are the users which will be able to access Skype For Business Online.
You need have an Azure Subscription. There you should have an Active Directory. This active directory should be synced with your OFiice 365 active directory. Meaning that the users should also be listed under your Azure Active Directory. This Azure Active Directory would be used to authenticate your app and the user. And log them into Skype For Business Online.
You can have a look. How to Set everything up

We have TFS 2015 installed on a server and are looking at having a 3rd party connect and help with the workload. With this, we do not want to create an Active Directory user for them unless we absolutely have to. My question is, is there a way that TFS 2015 supports users outside of an active directory environment and is there a way to do dual authentication for those users?
I did find this article and was not sure if it applies to TFS 2015 as well. Team Foundation Service is not an option for us as an option either.
TFS non windows users
No, you will have to create an AD account for every external user.
If you move to VSTS (there is a solid migration route), you can use AAD and add the venders AAD or MSA accounts to your AAD and give them access. The feature is called Guest accounts. There are no good reasons not to move to VSTS. It's more secure and has more features... And you dont have to upgrade or add disk space ever again.
I did a deep search over internet and watched videos. There is nowhere that I could find how to make Sharepoint 2010 accesible from internet using SBS 2011.
What could be the steps to do this?
i.e : sharepoint 2010 is running properly on intranet. But the users want to reach it from home as well. And we are using SBS 2011 including Active Directory. How will these users reach sharepoint from home or not only from intranet?
Would you direct me ?
I guess best solution is to provide VPN access to users. - future proof and you don't have to tweak any thing to the server. Its cheaper as well considering the cost and they will have seamless integration to AD
Next since you have already have AD configured ( it depends on how it has been setup) you could have additional ADFS configuration to authorise users.
See if you can upgrade to Windows Server 2012 essentials which gives more power than SBS 11 in terms of Claims authentication
Finally, you have to use Claim Based Authentication for the authentication and DNS routing etc which you might have seen on the videos.
Finally, you have cloud think Azure as well as an option.
Although I haven't configured SBS 2011 for SharePoint extranet, It appears to be same like windows 2008 server (slim down one) according to MSDN which should not affect your requirement. Apart from licensing... ( check this).
How can I RDP to an Azure box using an account I created in Azure? I don't want to go down the route of syncing directories or anything. Just simply want to be able to create accounts in Azure that can be used to access Azure servers.
This is a basic centralised authentication model and I am sure I am just missing something. Surely Microsoft can't expect us to add a bunch of users and service accounts on EACH server we create and manage passwords etc as entirely separate entities.
By "Azure Box" I assume you mean an Azure VM running Windows. There's nothing "magical" about these VMs. If you want central user management instead of relying on local user accounts you need to add it to an Active Directory domain. And if you want sync between this Active Directory domain and the Azure Active Directory for your tenant, you need to set up Directory Sync.
One cannot do this (without resorting to directory synchronisation). A Configuration Management tool such as SaltStack/Chef/Puppet seems a leaner fit than creating a traditional AD infrastructure.
I'm so sorry if this question is very basic but I'm very new to SharePoint. I only explored SharePoint Office 365 (SharePoint Online) so I'm not familiar with the server-side of it. I'm using SharePoint 2010. I've installed it in a server along with SQL Server 2008 R2 (so this server is the SharePoint server and the database server). I've configured it as a standalone (which is I'm not sure if right). I have another server for Active Directory Users and the SharePoint/Database server is a member of it's domain. How can I add users from Active Directory to be able to access the Central Administration and the site I'm going to build with the SharePoint/Database server? Please help me as I'm a beginner here. Thanks a lot in advance!
Login using the user which you used to install the Sharepoint 2010.
It will become your System Account . Then add other AD users to the CA site. and provide them appropriate permissions as per your requirements
Also add ad users to the site collection administrators for the other site you want to access .
Add them as a Site collection administrators for that site from Central administration
then log into that site :- goto site actions > site setting > People and Group
Here you can add the users in a group from AD users and provide them appropriate permissions
I have a sharepoint site installed and configured on farm. I want to find out which is the account used [spinstall, the user has not used the naming conventions] to do the installation. Is there a way I can find that out?
Thank you.
Check the account under which the Central Administration web site's application pool is running
JumpingThroughCode's answer would only be correct if they made the mistake of doing the installation with Farm Service account. The Farm Service account should be a low-privileged account that is the CA AppPool account and the Timer Service account. The Farm Admin, or Installer, account is a highly privileged account used to install the product and any updates, and is the initial Farm Administrator account.
I don't know of any way to reliably determine this via code - I've seen it suggested that this account would be the only one in both Farm Administrators and Managed Service Accounts, but it could have been removed from Farm Administrators.
I would recommend checking the installation logs in the 14/LOGS folder.
