At the worst, you could export your bookmarks from one and import them

make sure the settings are the same otherwise.


I have been using Amazon's a9.com which has a browser bar for Firefox that facilitates storing bookmarks on a9.com. This way, I can do bookmarks on my FreeBSD Firefox, and pull them up on my Windows Firefox, or any computer if I visit their site. There are probably other "server side bookmarks" services out there. The a9 makes it a little nicer with the toolbar thingus, plus it wraps around Google's search engine, Amazon's products search engine, and Amazon.com will give you a modest discount for helping test out their wonky new feature. (The bookmark management is a little weird, because it is implemented as a web interface.)

As far as duplicating profiles, I'm with Ean in figuring that trying to get the profiles to work on two utterly different platforms sounds like more trouble than it would likely be worth. I know that in the old days the Netscape folks were keen on a project to store metadata in an LDAP server ... perhaps the Mozilla foundation has some similar fetish, but you would be better off asking the Mozilla folks, who are all about cross-platform magic.
