I start firebird like this for each user:
/usr/bin/MozillaFirebird/MozillaFirebird -P default
This reduces the set-up time quite a bit when adding users and gives me the control I want over the browser preferences. I've also fairly extensively edited the .xul files for firebird to remove some functions I don't want users to have. Using the same firebird binary with identical profiles in each user's home lets me basically centrally manage the browser on the LTSP server.

Hello LTSP world:
I have never tried it but you should be able to manually edit the file to change the directory - i.e. point to each user's home directory. A quick script should be able to copy and change a bunch of accounts at once.
I'm also trying to do the mozilla thingie but with Firefox (it's lighter and more usable, I think.). After a bit of google search and some conversations in irc.mozilla.org/#mozilla,#firefox,#mozillazine, I think that the script could be the best option.
Anyway, I'm still solving some other problems in my LTSP system so I'm a bit busy. If you create the script and it works, please send it to me!

Thanks you guys, Edulix.
