Manu,
Thank you for the reply. I extracted the omni.jar with jar -x -f
omni.jar in the /usr/lib/firefox-7.0.1 directory. This created the
grepref.js file. I edited that file to comment out the config.obscure
value with // and then added at the end of the file the
pref("general.config.filename", "firefox.cfg"); then wrote the changes.
Next, I ran jar -f omni.jar -u grepref.js. Finally, I deleted the
.mozilla file from a student's home directory and launched firefox
against their account. Firefox came up okay (although no homepage) but I
checked about:cache and about:config and it still isn't pulling the
locked prefs from the firefox.cfg file in /usr/lib/firefox-7.0.1/. Not
sure what else to try. Any help is appreciated.
Regards,
Jeff

Okay, I added the local-settings.js. Firefox launches correctly, but
it still isn't pulling the correct settings. It is pulling user
preferences
from /home/username/.mozilla/firefox/user.default/user.prefs. Is
there a way to tell it to override user preferences and only use the
config file specified?
For LockPref in Firefox 7, you need extract ,in «firefox-file», the
omni.jar (jar -x -f omni.jar). In the «grepref.js» you can add the line:
pref("general.config.filename", "firefox.cfg");
And for your information, you can add just «//» before the line :
//pref("general.config.obscure_value"....
For update the omni.jar use:
jar -f omni.jar -u grepref.js
And add your firefox.cfg in the firefox's folder.
Bye
Manu
