On firefox 3.5.X i can copy an configured profile from an user-folder to the programm folder of firefox. \mozilla firefox\defaults\profiles. After an new user log in to the machine the default profile will get the actual profile of the new user. With all bookmarks, configurations and so on. But this doesn't work with the firefox 3.6.10? What changed? What will be the way i can get an default configuration for every user on one machine? I want to deploy the firefox with an default configuration in our enterprise? Why does the behaviour change?

What to do?

Thanks...

That should still work AFAIK.

Isn't anything at all copied from the defaults\profile folder to a new created profile or is only some data missing?

No - there are no missing data, because nothing will be copied. The profile - folder does not work. There are the standard first start behavior.

There might be another trick? Hint? Todo?

Thanks.

That's the story about working with missconfigured VMs. The problem isn't there anymore, working with an nice, clean installed system.

Thanks so far!
