Hey Alex,

Interesting, but deployment wise, SCCM has legs in every segment of the network.

End-user desktops are whitelisted to update from the web using the Firefox 
maintenance app, however the PAW's are segmented because they are for 
administration.

So PAWs DO get the updated, however only when I change the base version of the 
deployment package for Firefox on SCCM.

The way is works is that I deploy a base version to every desktops and the 
detection is done on a "Greater or Equal..." basis, so desktops are allowed to 
updated themselves and SCCM doesn't attempt to reinstall it. But since PAWs 
don't access the web, they're stuck until I deploy a new base version.

Essentially, I'm trying to update one less package manually by building an 
offline solution for everyone.

Hi,

There is also an Open-Source alternative to SCCM which can fulfill your need, 
it's WAPT Deployment software.

The store provides pre-made Firefox and Firefox ESR packages : 
https://store.wapt.fr/store/?search=Firefox&sort=popular

If your scope of endpoint is out of SCCM scope, it can be a good solution

Greetings colleagues,

I work in a border-line paranoid secure environment where we make use of 
air-gapped PAW (Privileged Access Workstations) to administer the network.

The issue is well... it's air-gapped, meaning there's no access to the internet 
at all from those workstations and everything is tightly controlled.

Also to deploy the updates, I use SCCM. For end-user systems we whitelist the 
access so browsers can update themselves however that's not possible for the 
PAW's.

So I've got a few questions:


1.       Is there a GPO or some kind of solution to redirect where Firefox ESR 
fetches it's update? (Without trying to spoof URLs which I'm sure change often)

2.       Where would I get the update patches instead of the entire installer 
EXE?

3.       Is above possible at all?

Thank you as always....
