Using the Firefox search within a local network, Firefox uses the integrated search instead of trying to access the server in case it is not a full domain name. This is really annoying, especially when you try to access servername
. Firefox tries to search for servername
instead of trying whether there is a server with exactly that namke. But there is a solution for that.
At first enter about:config
into the address bar. Then search for keyword.enabled
. After that set the value to false. Every time you want to search, you have to jump into the search bar. Using the shortcut Ctrl+K
enables you to jump to there without having to use your mouse. There you can search for your term.
But be careful! Using the about:config
is dangerous. You can damage Firefox in a way you cannot repair it after that.
