Group Policies

Hello.

How can I configure group policies to manage the computers in my network that are using Arch Linux? I'm looking for something similar to Windows' Group Policies.
Basically, I want to prevent users from installing certain browser extensions in Chromium and Firefox.
I searched Google and the official documentation for Firefox and Chrome's Group Polocies but they don't provide instructions on Linux. Also, I could not find anything about this topic in the Arch Linux Wiki.

Re: Group Policies

One approach would be to use configuration management tools like ansible or puppet to ensure users get the same customized browser package that restrict their options .

If you prefer to stick with Active Directory group Policies, samba can do that.
https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Active … ntegration deals with it, but I'm not sure it has the info you need .

https://dmulder.github.io/group-policy-book/index.html might be more useful .
