I need to set the profile path to be system name dependent on linux. I have a set of servers that share home directories, so I can only run 1 copy of firefox on 1 of the servers.

I have a group of 20 systems running RHEL 5.5 that share home directories. so my profile is located on each machine at /home/<username>/.mozilla/firefox/<unique string>.default

this path is set by the file /home/<username>/.mozilla/firefox/profiles.ini.

trying to open firefox on any system other than the first gives the "Firefox is already running, but is not responding." message.

If I could make the profile sit at /home/<username>/.mozilla/firefox/<sysname>/<unique name >.default, then each system should be able to have 1 browser open at the same time...

You can create shortcuts to open each instance with an absolute path to a specific profile instead of using profiles.ini
