Locking Mozilla firefox settings

by john . Updated 18 years, 4 months ago

Ok so please forgive me if i shouldnt be asking firefox questions on this site. If that’s the case please direct me to a site which can help 😀

I am trying to lock down the proxy settings and homepage on the computers in a school where I am the network administrator.
I have searched the internet and found some helpful articles on how to do that but when I follow the instructions they dont seem to work. SO this is what I have have come up with so far.

Mozilla does not seem to like these settings. Or @ least these settings do not seem to work.

//
lockpref(“network.proxy.type”,1);
lockPref(“network.proxy.http”,”192.168.0.1″);
lockPref(“network.proxy.http_port”,”3128″);
lockPref(“network.proxy.share_proxy_settings”,true);
lockPref(“browser.startup.homepage”,”http://www.middle.school.nz/?id=100040&cat=6″);

If anyone has any idea about what I might be doing wrong I would appreciate any suggestions.
Many thanx,
John.
