Mandi! Mike Kaply In chel di` si favelave... > Are there situations where you don't want to update extensions?
Sincerely, not. But sometime happen that some extensions have bugs, or worster have bug that impact only on my particular configuration in my organization (and so, are a bit harder to be quickly fixed upstream). So, i want to be able to rollback, if needed... or at least to delay upgrade until i'm pretty sure there's no incompatibilities. > Extensions are updated when Firefox is updated and checks are done > approximately every 24 hours.

I've think about that, really, but creating a 'local infrastructure' (ok, it a simple webspace but...) to installa extensions seems a bit too much also for me... > So you would turn off extension updates, and when you put a new version on the > local file system, it would get installed because the policy code explicitly > installs the new version (it checks the version in the local file) Mike, sorry, i need some clarification on this. You are speaking about 'distribution/extensions/' folder? So: 1) i can put extensions (XPI) in distribution/extensions/ folder 2) i can lock removal and disable extensions update via policy 3) every FF/TB update, and anyway at most every 24 hour, FF/TB check for extensions update in distribution/extensions/ folder and, if needed, update it, EVEN IF extensions update is disabled. It is true?! Thanks. PS: There's a wiki page about this somewhere? -- dott.
