This is driving me nuts.

With IE and the old netscape 4.xx I could put all my profile files
(bookmarks, email, news, cache, etc.) on my server. Then I could point
my workstations to that central folder. This way I had the same
settings and files no matter which PC I sat down at to browse the Net,
check email, etc.

Does anyone know how to do this with mozilla? I've tried all sorts of
things, but none work.

Or will Netscape (based on Mozilla) easily do what I want?

Thanks.

What I did is to start on a machine without any profiles, and use
mozilla -profileWizard to create one on a mapped drive. I then copied
the registry.dat from the mozilla application data folder to the server,
and then back to my mozilla application data folder on each new machine.

But this won't work when I already have tons of email and links.

Man I can't believe they didn't program to allow for this.
