How to disable access to proxy settings
I need to enable the proxy on my network and disable users from changing the settings, is there any way to do this in Mozilla?
Thank you for your help.

Hi,
Please see this.
The settings you may want to lock are network.proxy.http and network.proxy.http_port or network.proxy.autoconfig_url

Going beyond Tools > Options - about:config
What's That Preference? add-on - Quickly decode about:config entries - After installation, go inside about:config, right-click any preference, enable (tick) MozillaZine Results to Panel and again right-click a pref and choose MozillaZine Reference to begin with.

Firefox Profile Folder & Files
Use a mozilla.cfg file in the Firefox program folder to lock prefs or specify default values.
Place a file local-settings.js in the defaults\pref folder where you also find the file channel-prefs.js to specify using mozilla.cfg.
pref("general.config.filename", "mozilla.cfg"); pref("general.config.obscure_value", 0); // use this to disable the byte-shift
See:
You can use these functions in mozilla.cfg:
defaultPref(); // set new default value pref(); // set pref, but allow changes in current session lockPref(); // lock pref, disallow changes
Got it! Thanks for all your help!!!
