I've been toying around with your FFCE package and must say I really like it. It's stable, pushable and remotely manageable! Even though it works correctly, I'm running in to a bit of a practical problem.
There's a proxy server running in the network. The IE users get the proxy from the group policy and since we found out about FFCE the FireFox users will have their settings locked sooner or later as well. Only thing bugging me here is: the users running FireFox are developers. Developers tend to have local admin rights. I've been testing for myself with local admin and this is what happens:
1. First I get the FFCE package pushed, works like a charm.
2. I'm an 'angry user' who doesn't want to go through a proxy so I download FireFox from mozila.com
3. I install FF and reboot
4. I open FFCE and it starts installing now, but gives me an error:
'The installer has encountered an unexpected error installing this package. This may indicate a problem with this package. The error code is 2324.
The FireFox I just downloaded and installed works fine (thus allowing me to bypass the proxy settings) and the FFCE package doesn't get pushed again because it's already there.
Is there any workaround that any of you know of or do we have to get rid of the local admin rights (which will infuriate the developers
)?
