RFE: Deployment of Firefox settings

Closed this issue · 1 comments

This is a continuation of fleet-commander/fc-admin#168

Preferences data needs to be deployed to /etc/firefox/pref/

Each file located there is read by Firefox and applied to browser preferences.

The idea is to deploy a file with read-only permission for the user it is intended for, so Firefox will only read the preferences from that file, as it has no permission to read the rest.

The format of the file is like this:

pref("browser.download.panel.shown", true);
pref("accessibility.typeaheadfind.flashBar", 0);

There is also a way to set locked preferences explained here: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Locking_preferences and it consists on using lockPref instead pref.
