Set Proxy Options via Group Policy - Firefox, Chrome and Safari
Hi All,
I need to be able to manage the proxy settings for all browsers via group policy.
I have got it working perfectly for Internet Explorer but also need to be able to manage Firefox, Chrome & Safari.
Can anyone point me in the right direction.
Thanks

Hi,
Has anyone actually managed to get the proxy settings successfully deployed via GP for Firefox?
I have spent hours trying but have had no luck.

I have got Firefox proxy settings working in GP before.
Tell me about the policy first.
Have you placed all the users into a OU and then applied the policy to it?
Did you find a suitable .adm file or do you need a better one?

Are you familiar with Resultant Set of Policy?
You can run this MC tool to confirm that policies are being applied.

I don’t understand what he meant when he said "I had to create a registry edit and config file copy at time of login". I see the information from the link that he posted, but how do you use group policy to apply the files and configuration to all the client computers at the same time. The information from the link looks like it has to be applied to every computer separately.
Do a search for ADM files for each product and then add them as a template into group policy.
Try here for starters:
