Hello,

In our organization we need to customize Firefox the same way for every single user meaning that from time to time it's needed to add one or more extras for everyone. Every time we need to do this we have to install individually the extra in every user.

What i need is a way to silently deploy the xpi file. The OS from the computers is Mac OsX Yosemite and the firefox version is 36.0.1 (we need to stick to this version).

Thanks in advance, Gonçalo Catarino

Hey there!

I'm not sure if you are aware, but mozilla makes a version of Firefox just for deploying in enterprises and organizations. https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/organizations/

I'd suggest checking it out. Also, there is a very helpful mailing list that can assist you with deployment questions.

Thank you both for your suggestions. CCK2 wizard is what i needed for silently deploying the extras within the organization.
