"in sync"?

Can one share bookmarks between machines?



yeah I'm sure you can. You can leave the bookmarks on one machine and access them through a writable NFS or SMB share from other computers. just change your user.js to point to the path that the bookmarks are in. You may need to create a user.js if it is not already in your ~/.mozilla/default/xxxxx.slt/ directory.


the line you add to user.js will look like this:

// Specify which bookmarks file to use:
user_pref("browser.bookmarks.file","/mnt/<an_nfs_dir>/.mozilla/default/xxxxx.slt/bookmarks.html");


I use this to share my bookmarks between my linux and XP partitions using a small FAT32 partition for the bookmarks file. my xp mozilla user.js looks like this:


user_pref("browser.bookmarks.file", "G:\\shared\\bookmarks.html");

while the linux one looks like:

//user_pref("browser.bookmarks.file","/mnt/fat_part/shared/bookmarks.html");

I guess there are other ways using separate copies and syncing them....
