We have deployed firefox on a terminal server.. but are facing some proxy related issues while navigating to a site. We trust the site (internal site) and need to add the site to proxy exception list. I tried using network.proxy.no_proxies_on and adding the site it works fine only for my ID. can this be done for all users logging in to the server?

Firefox 27.0.2 Terminal Server 2003 x64

You can use a mozilla.cfg file in the Firefox program folder to lock prefs or specify new (default) values.

Place a local-settings.js file in the defaults\pref folder where also the channel-prefs.js file is located to specify using mozilla.cfg. 

pref("general.config.filename", "mozilla.cfg");
pref("general.config.obscure_value", 0);

These functions can be used in the mozilla.cfg file: 

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

Note that mozilla.cfg needs to start with a comment line (//) as this line will be skipped. You can use user_pref() lines as present in prefs.js after making the change on about:config and change the function name accordingly to avoid errors.
