Yeah. Me again. I rock, I know… don’t tell me. lol!
What I want to accomplish is to basically use two firefoxes: One inside
a Virtual machine (VMware Workstation) and the other one on my native
Suse system.
Difficulty: Using ONLY one profile. If I save a bookmark in the linux
firefox, it should be available in the Virtual machine - and the other
way around.
First you can share folders between host and guest(s), ideally you set
up the users on both sides in the same way, i,e, order, they’d best have
the same user-ID’s
After that you need to look for the file profiles.ini , it points to a
“sdfuiuh91-default” folder. This is where everything is kept. The only
thing you have to do is point to the same folder.
Then again FF is quite tricky, won’t allow running instances in both
host and guest. You’ll get a message that FF is already active…
But the above should give you an idea of how it can be done. Can’t say
more, because I don’t know what kind of host and guest you’re talking.
TAKE CARE: make copies of both FF-folders from your home…
