Hey Everyone!

I have users that remote into a Terminal Server. I need to be able to configure a specific Firefox Add-on, and set the homepage for any users who would then log in.

I could set it up for each user, but we have a little over 100 users.

I can set the homepage through GP, but only for IE.

Anyone have any ideas?

I think I may of just figured it out...

What I did was, I browsed to a users folder which I had already manually set the Homepage and installed the Add-On (Which is located at C:\Users\{username}\AppData\Roaming) and copied the Mozilla folder. I pasted it into a new account I just created, and pasted it in the same location (Even though the folder did not already exist) and it pulled everything across!!!!

**SOLUTION**

What I did was, I browsed to a users folder which I had already manually set the Homepage and installed the Add-On (Which is located at C:\Users{username}\AppData\Roaming) and copied the Mozilla folder. I pasted it into a new account I just created, and pasted it in the same location (Even though the folder did not already exist) and it pulled everything across!!!!

What I did to fix any new users that hadnt previouslly logged on to the Terminal Server:
I physically made an AppData folder, and inside that folder, made a Roaming folder, and then pasted the Mozilla folder that I had previously gotten from another user who was set up. I done this for the Public, and Default (which is hidden) folders within the Users folder on the root of C:\

So to be perfectly clear, inside the C:\Users folder on the Terminal Server (Windows Server 2008 R2 x64), there will be all the users folder's who have logged onto the Terminal Server. There are also two defualt folders, called Defualt (which is hidden), and Public. Within these folders, I MADE an AppData folder, and inside that folder, made a Roaming folder. Then pasted the Mozilla folder inside that. Made two new users, logged on, pulled everything across :)
