Preference settings...

Post by baylors »

I am installing on a Win 2008 r2 server. There are 25 users. I want every user to have the same homepage. Is there a way to do this? I have successfully done this in chrome using policy's in the registry. Can the same be accomplished in Iron?

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Google\Chrome]
"HomepageIsNewTabPage"=dword:00000001
"HomepageLocation"="http://chromium.org"
"PrintingEnabled"=dword:00000001
"RestoreOnStartup"=dword:00000004
"ShowHomeButton"=dword:00000001

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Google\Chrome\RestoreOnStartupURLs]
"1"="http://example.com"
"2"="http://chromium.org"

Iron is based on chromium, which is also the base for Chrome. What you want to do should work with Krona as it did(does) with Chrome.
Your HKLM registry settings will need to be modified to reflect Iron instead of Google Chrome.
Back up the registry settings, and give it a try. See what happens.

I have tested and confirmed that Iron is successfully using the policy settings from:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Chromium
