Back in the day (read: before the latest firefox update), I used to be
able to ssh to a remote box, run 'firefox -local', and have that box fire
up its own firefox session even if I was running firefox on the system
from I which I sshed. Those days seem to be gone. No matter what I try, if
I've got firefox running on my local desktop, the remote firefox command just
fires off another instance of the local firefox session.
This is relied to the problem I have using "firefox -P" on my
local centos to try to start a new instance of firefox with a
different profile.
My solution is to start
env MOZ_NO_REMOTE=1 firefox -P
Could you try that? I checked it through ssh and it works. Just
that you have to chose the profile at start.
That works! Yes, it requires an extra click. But it does actually work.
Thanks!
