Rudolf,
1) Is there a reason that you want to create each user's Mozilla
directory? Why not let each user create it the first time the start
Mozilla?
2) If there is a reason, the file you need to modify is the appreg
file under each user's .mozilla directory. In that file (at the end) it
defines the (random) directory the profiles are stored under and the
profile to use.
I have never tried it but you should be able to manually edit the
file to change the directory - i.e. point to each user's home directory.
A quick script should be able to copy and change a bunch of accounts at
once.
Be sure to keep the random directory under the .mozilla directory.
This is a security feature!
Pete
