This solution is not mine, but its tested and works.
Great thanks to my buddy @ four elements
Hope its usefull for somebody over here.
===============================mainlocation
===============================
%userprofile%\Application data\Mozilla\Profiles\%profile%\%salted%\...
%userprofile% = C:\Documents and settings\%username%
%profile% = "default"
%salted% = "12345678.slt" (8 cijfers/letters)
folders
- Cache
- Mail
- ImapMail
files
- prefs.js
- abook.mab
- bookmarks.html
===============================Methode for making standard salted path
===============================
rename"12345678.slt" to "unsalted.slt"
Start mozilla
Remove profiel "default"
New profiel "default"
Regiosettings "NL"
This wil be linked to the slt-folder, but ONLY if exact 8 karakters.
But cache still pointing to the old location ( salted )
===============================Methode or making standard config
===============================
Configuration is in prefs.js
This can be overrulled by optional file user.js
You can put the unsalted.slt in a loginscript for example
Example:
* user_pref("browser.cache.disk.parent_directory",
"t:\\temp"); (watch the
dubble backslashes)
the path is not allowed to contain eviroment variable ( %username% )
===============================Cache from roaming profile (policy)
===============================
Method to let the cache in the profile dire
Solution cach not on server, but same for all users.
ExcludeProfileDirs="Application
data\Mozilla\Profile\default\unsalted.slt\Cache"
Path is relative to %userprofile% and may not contain wildcards
disadvantage:
- cache-path must be adjusted bij script, because there is still a
salted-path pointer
- while this path is absolut, this is still for every user different. ( own
%userprofile% )
- better to use the Temp drive.
===============================Cache from roaming profile, use of X:
===============================
Method to set cache to T: ( Temp) see above
Putting mozilla data to X: ( Home Drive )
First move "default" to X:\.Mozilla
thruough mozilla profile manager, creat new profile en use the existing
profile on X:
Also move cache to T:\temp ( see above )
Disadvantagel:
- bigger load on server and network
- all imap-mail is done "local" in cache stored, so now its on X:
- when server is down, your not able to retreave old mail, and your not able
to make a new mail
===============================Full appdata to X: (policy)
===============================
moving %userprofile%\Application data to X:\.profile\Application data
Advantage
- all user settings are on X:, so logon goes faster.
- when creating backup you have ALL user data.
Nadeel:
- same as above
- other apps also doen't work which uses %application data%.
===============================Mozilla config
===============================
Prefs.js look/adjust through http://about:config
shows the vallues of the user.js
Changes only in prefs.js
So the user kan only change prefs.js
and User.js can be used as a policy
example:
* user_pref("browser.startup.homepage", "http://server/home.html
<http://server/home.htmle> ");
