Hi

At Orange France, we also use FF ESR with SCCM for about 100 000 PC

I also use SCCM to deploy applications and have a better success rate with 
Firefox than any other software. I find it easier to manage than the standard 
version of Firefox. The slower adoption of new features is appreciated by my 
users who are not always fans of change.

I use a vbscript to do the install which closes Firefox if it is running and 
copies a local-settings.js and mozilla.cfg file to lock some settings. For 
detection I use the file system detection and have it check the version of 
firefox.exe which has been very successful. You can leave the auto-update 
feature of Firefox enabled and still deploy new versions without conflict. This 
way your remote users will still update on their own and once on the network 
will report back their compliance status to SCCM and update if needed.

If you are using SCCM to do your imaging I would advise against including it in 
your gold image but include the install as part of the task sequence instead. 
This way you can update the installer or task sequence to avoid deploying 
computers with an outdated version of Firefox or having to make a new image for 
every Firefox update.

Subject: [Mozilla Enterprise] ESR questions

Does ESR make Firefox any easier to manage in the enterprise?  I have around 
3400 PCs spread throughout the state, some of which don't connect to the 
network with any regularity.

Is it difficult to implement?  I use SCCM for most software deployments, and we 
would also bake it into the gold image that we use.
