Hi,

I want to be able to have mutlple users log onto machines and haave proxy settings already set in preferences. I have tried by copying the Mozilla folder in to the All users location and does not help.

Each user logs onto a computer with a mandatory or Roaming account depending on account security. Settings for firefox are picked up from their Documents and settings folder when they log on (It is created when they log on for the first time)

Is there a way to pull across proxy settings for a new user? Ussually it would be a case of just sticking it in All Users.

Thanks

A possibility is to create a file user.js and place that file in the default template location (defaults\pref) in the Firefox program folder. If you don't want users to change the proxy (connection) settings then you can also lock the prefs or set a different default value.

See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Locking_preferences --- You can use these calls in mozilla.cfg to set or lock a pref: defaultPref(); // set new default value pref(); // set pref, but allow changes lockPref(); // lock pref, disallow changes
