9 Don't know where WindowsXP's firefox profiles are, but for Gentoo
10 they are:
11
12 passwords - $HOME/.mozilla/firefox/<profileDir>/key3.db
13 cookies - $HOME/.mozilla/firefox/<profileDir>/cookies.txt
14 popup perms - $HOME/.mozilla/firefox/<profileDir>/cookperm.txt
15 bookmarks - $HOME/.mozilla/firefox/<profileDir>/bookmarks.html
16
17 You could use rsync in a cron job (something like this)
18 /usr/bin/rsync -av -e \
19 ssh /home/peter/.mozilla/firefox/<profileDir>/cookperm.txt \
20 <remote>:/home/peter/.mozilla/firefox/<profileDir>/
