Within firefox, a kiosk user is not allowed to declare new plugins. Choosing a
helper application for TIFF images (e.g. /opt/csw/bin/display) enables one to
display the images in an external viewer, but not within the browser, in page
frames etc.
Sorry but I just proved on my system using SRSS 3.1 and Firefox 1.5.0.6 on a
Sunray 1G in CAM mode.
I can klick on a unknown file and configure a helper application and start it.
this resulted in additional entries in the mimeTypes.rdf file
Maybe you are trying to use Firefox as we used Mozilla.
In firefox you are supposed to add helper apps as you go, interactively.
when you klick on an unknown file type you get a dialoge to catalouge
the filetype and define the helper app.
THIS IS WHY YOU NEED to CREATE a PROTOTYPE
with all the choices already made for the inexperienced
Kiosk user.
later versions Firefox does not even have the possibility to preconfigure
plugins via the GUI.
Otherwise something else is wrong with your installation
Permissions ? Ancient versions of software ?
From another terminal : Copy the whole
/var/opt/SUNWbb/root/home/utcu0/.mozilla/* hierarchy
to /var/opt/SUNWut/kiosk/prototypes/firefox/.mozilla
BEFORE YOU EXIT FIREFOX on the first screen.
Then you rename
/var/opt/SUNWut/kiosk/prototypes/firefox/.mozilla/firefox/*.default
to something like
/var/opt/SUNWut/kiosk/prototypes/firefox/.mozilla/firefox/*.CAM
Make sure that the whole hierarchy ( including dot-files ) is set
to read-only and owned by root:root so no-one
can change the files in /var/opt/SUNWut/kiosk/prototypes/firefox/
Then you edit your CAM application firefox parameters so that the
commandline is
/opt/sfw/bin/firefox -P CAM
The web interface on port 1660 does not seem to allow this. I passed the said
argument to the invocation command of firefox, applied and logged out, only
to find it had reverted to the default (non-argument) command once I logged
in again.
Yes it does !
