Seed password file and master password

Firefox Setelan

I am using FireFox in a lab environment where some sessions involve a webapp that requires a password. However, the app is token based, you use up tokens as you do things, so we want to create 20 user accounts so we don't run out of tokens. however, we also don't want attendees to be able to get the password and use the tokens outside of a session. My thinking is, if I could create a separate password file for each machine, seeded with it's own password for the website in question, and also seed a Master password known only to us managing the conference, I could get the control I need. Is this possible to do my way of copied files and/or registry edits? Or is this a manual only process to "import" a password file?

Thanks in advance, Gordon

All user names and passwords that are stored in the Password Manager (logins.json) are encrypted with the master password. Users will always have to enter the MP to be able to use/fill a stored password as only the MP can decrypt the password. If the tokens use a cookie or other data can can be stored locally like in localStorage then maybe you can manipulate such a cookie instead.
