Deploy Firefox with Certificates & Security Devices
I am looking to create a deployable Firefox install that will include PKI certificates & a pre configured security device(Active Client Cac Reader). I have found that I can manually configure the certificates and security device and then copy the 3 db files (cert8, secmod, & key3) and then paste them into another profile successfully. What I'm trying to do is to see how to automate this process with a deployed version of Firefox. Multiple users use each machine so everytime a new user opens Firefox I want those certs & security devices to be pre-configured. Any help would be great. I've never deployed Firefox before. We were thinking of just using SCCM if possible.

For deploying custom SCCM install of firefox create a custom app with the regular Firefox Setup <version>.exe" -ms command. Create a custom mozilla.cfg file, local-settings.js, override.ini, and a batch file to call everything. Use a FX extension called "CCK Wizard"[1]. This will create you an extension with a bunch of options. This is more for after the install customization.

Unfortunately CCK isn't an option. Is there a way to add the 3 .db's to the default/preferences folder during installation/ deployment of Firefox?
See:
You can initialize a profile by creating a defaults\profile folder in the Firefox program folder (C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\) and place files in it.

I've seen both of those links but I'm not sure they help. I need the profile to be created automatically upon deployment/installation. We have a few hundred machines and don't have the time to be creating a default/profile on every machine.
I'm working on a .bat script to do this, but wasn't sure if there was an easier way in Firefox installing/deploying to do this. Thanks for the links.
I am trying to virtualize Firefox with Microsoft App V 4.6 SP1. I have successfully done it with 2 issues. I can either customize the App V package and allow modification of the user profile or I can lock down the profile and add the Security Device. I need the ability to do both so that we can copy the user's Favorites from the current Thin App package they are using to the new App V package. Is there a way to script installing the Security device upon launch of Firefox 24?
