Way back when the very first version of Netscape was released it was very messy
for an administrator to set site defaults, and it has got harder and harder as
the years have gone by. The document http://www.mozilla.org/catalog/end-user/customizing/briefprefs.html
is good and describes a nice simple scheme, but I'm not convinced it works any
more (a previous comment hinted about new directory structures). I have created
a file defaults/pref/all.js on a Windows installation of Firefox 1.0, but it
seems to be ignored both for new and existing users. Have I done something silly
or is this other people's experience?
This stuff is important! If you want people to get a good impression of Mozilla
you need to help the guy who administers a large site make life as easy as
possible for the thousands of users under his or her control.
