Hey George,

This would be the mozilla.cfg file you are referring to. This file provides the 
opportunity to configure a myriad of different options.

Some links that will be of help:
Enterprise Deployment: 
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Firefox/Enterprise_deployment
The wonderful Mike Kaply's blog: https://mike.kaply.com/

To disabled updates, you will need the following lines in the mozilla.cfg file:

lockPref("app.update.auto", false);
lockPref("app.update.mode", 0);
lockPref("app.update.enabled", false);
lockPref("app.update.service.enabled", false);

With regards to deployment, you will need to deploy the preference file 
together with your installation. Again this will vary on how you want to 
perform the deployment. You could use a GPO for example.

Hope this helps.

Subject: [Mozilla Enterprise] Setting Preferences

Hello All,
I am reaching out to ask anyone who might know how to set preferences for 
Firefox and then deploy it.
I can deploy the firefox msi or dmg just fine, but I would like to customize it 
to not ask for updates as well as set the homepage to our District's website 
and then deploy the customized version of FF.

I have set preferences and know how to do that in the about:config in the url 
bar, but I have no idea beyond that (as how to set it and save to the 
application) or possibly "export" the settings and attach them to send along 
with the dmg or msi.
This is as far as I have got, I have searched google up and down but it keeps 
coming back to some configuration file while I cannot find anywhere, and I was 
able to find it I wouldn't know how to link it to or import it into my 
deployment of FF.

We are using LANDesk as the deployment software, Mac 10.9.5 (Mavericks) and 
Windows 8.1 64bit.


Thanks to any help that may be offered.
