Hi,

I am managing some linux servers in schools.

Actualy a lot of users are working with firefox.

Depending on how the user is working with firefox, the profil may reclaims a lot of disk space.

Is there a tool working like :

firefox_cleaning_tool /path_of_profile /options xxx

with some options like : cache / etc...

For exemple : the tool flushes profiles caches files and user have no action to do to continue using firefox as usual

this kind of tool should run every month (ie with crontab)

Is there a way to do that ?

I can manual flush some folders contents but I am afraid to do mistakes.

Thanks for your help

Hi, I don't think we keep user cache in a profile (for instance /home/ubuntu/.mozilla), but in a Local Directory (say /home/ubuntu/.cache). Check about:profiles for proper paths. Using the OS policy you can set up cleaning cache on browser shutdown, see policy templates.
