I've downloaded your .adm (x) files and added them into our test GPO/Admin templates. The settings to apply the Homepage to default to what we specify isn't working. The setting is correct and other settings within your .adm files work on this GPO, just not the default homepage. I have successfully made these changes within Chrome and IE, but not FireFox. Can you please help? Thank you.

hello michael, as far as i know mozilla doesn't provide any .adm files or support GPO by itself. can you check at the third-party place you've downloaded them from, maybe they have a dedicated help section or support forum. thanks you for your understanding!

Ok, well how would one go about changing settings domain wide for users in particular OU's? Does firefox support windows GPO?

no, the core firefox browser by mozilla has no gpo support at all. there appears to be an adapted version at http://www.frontmotion.com/FMFirefoxCE/index.htm for example which claims to have support for it (i've personally never tried that). in case you'd help or have further questions about it you'd need to refer to their support channels.
