Abstract: Methods and systems for providing media contention controls at a virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) device are provided. More particularly, a VDI desktop media controller (DMC) application is provided. The VDI DMC application is executed by the VDI client device. Accordingly, the VDI DMC application provides local control of media. In addition, the VDI DMC application can provide for local control of multiple media streams received simultaneously.

Abstract: Methods and systems for providing an enterprise class virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) are provided. Aspects of the VDI include providing support for multiple simultaneous virtual private networks (VPNs), video calls, and for operatively connecting to a selected connected device within a personal workspace through a single sign on procedure. A teletype (TTY) function can also be provided using normal or VPN connections. The VDI can comprise or be incorporated into a thin client device, a telephone, a headset, a keyboard, a mouse, or a monitor.

Abstract: According to the present invention, methods, apparatus, and computer readable medium are disclosed for defining a virtual domain in an electronic messaging system are disclosed. A virtual domain node is defined that corresponds to a real (non-virtual) domain. The virtual domain node resided in a hierarchically organized directory. A plurality of virtual domain attributes are then assigned to the virtual domain node. The directory is a tree based hierarchical directory arranged in such a way even in a multiple domain environment, a name search operation is executed as if in a flat name space.

Abstract: According to the present invention, methods, apparatus, and computer readable medium are disclosed for automatically defining a mail domain in a directory server associated with a messaging server are disclosed. When an message having new domain name is received by the messaging server, a directory server creates a corresponding entry in a directory for every component included in the new domain name that does not already exist in the directory. A corresponding domain name service record is automatically updated in a domain name server associated with the directory server based upon the entry which is used to identify the new domain.

Abstract: A messaging system capable of providing monitoring capabilities of mail services provided by a mail server is disclosed. Monitoring of mail services can be done automatically without requiring a local administrator to have knowledge about the specific implementation details about mail services that are provided by the mail server. In addition, the messaging system provides the ability to perform a variety of monitoring tasks remotely.

Abstract: A method and apparatus are disclosed for handling an input event directed to a thread within a process operating in a multi-threaded system. A process is alerted that an input event effecting one of its active connection threads has been received. An input polling thread in the process is enabled and is used, in conjunction with other thread-specific data, to determine which of the threads in the process has an event directed to it. That thread is then triggered to handle the input event. The active connection thread receiving the input event is assigned a light weight process to execute only after it is determined that the thread requires it to process the input event. The input polling thread for a process detects input events for its process and causes the appropriate connection thread in the process to be assigned a light weight process when the connection thread needs it to execute. This greatly reduces the number of light weight processes assigned to threads in a multi-threaded operating system.

Abstract: Precedence rules that govern the granting of user level services for a domain in a shared mail server for an email provider are disclosed. Accordingly, when a request for the user level service is made, a determination is made whether or not the requested service is a member of a proper set of allowed domain level services. If the requested user level service is within the proper set of allowed domain level services, then the requested user level service is granted. In so doing, the granted user level service becomes a member of the proper subset of the set of allowed domain level services for the shared mail server.
