To reverse the order, add the +following to your chrome/userChrome.css file, under the +~/.mozilla/firefox directory: + +.dialog-button-box { -moz-box-direction: reverse; -moz-box-pack: right; } +.dialog-button-box spacer { display: none ! important; } + +Emacs keybindings +----------------- + +Versions of Firefox before 1.0 supported Emacs style keybindings in +text entry boxes. Version 1.0 now merely follows the GTK keybindings +settings. To enable Emacs keybindings in GTK, follow the instructions +at http://kb.mozillazine.org/Emacs_Keybindings_(Firefox). + +Well Known Ports +---------------- + +To prevent @Browser@ from being used to launch attacks against other +protocols, certain ports cannot be connected to by default. See +http://www.mozilla.org/projects/netlib/PortBanning.html for further +information. To allow the port numbers being used, enter +"about:config" in the URL bar and edit the +"network.security.ports.banned.override" entry to list the ports you +wish to allow (eg "2049,4045,6000"). + +Safe Browsing +------------- + +Phishing and malware protection, also known as Safe Browsing, makes use +of a third party web service and regularly downloads updates. More +information on how this works and what is being sent and downloaded are +available on the following page: +http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/phishing-protection/ + +NTLM +---- + +Since version 30.0, NTLMv1 authentication has been disabled because +it's known as insecure. Companies and organizations still deploying +the older protocol should upgrade to NTLMv2, unfortunately, it's not +supported by @Browser@. +It is however still possible to toggle the preference to continue using +NTLMv1, though the NTLM auth support is considered deprecated, by +switching the network.negotiate-auth.allow-insecure-ntlm-v1 preference +in about:config. + +See https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Firefox/Releases/30/Site_Compatibility#Security +for more details. + + -- Mike Hommey <glandium@debian.org>, Mon, 7 Mar 2016 07:42:57 +0200 |
