I'm trying to deploy FF 4.0rc1 in a corporate environment but I can't find a way to set the default home page or any other settings for that matter.

Is there a way to set the default home page for all new users and lock it so that the users can't change home page?

Best regards Jonas

In Firefox 4 the template folder for new profiles (C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\defaults\profile\ ) doesn't exist. You can create that \defaults\profile\ folder and place a file user.js in it with the prefs that you want to initialize.

See:

You can also use a mozilla.cfg file to set the default value for prefs.
See: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Locking_preferences 

defaultPref();  // set new default value
pref(); // set pref, but allow changes
lockPref();  // lock pref, disallow changes
