I've always been annoyed by the Firefox "feature" of executing locally, even if initiated remotely. Consider this situation: You are running Firefox on your Linux workstation, and SSH into a server. On the server's command line, you launch Firefox. Rather than opening a new window which is X-tunneled back through SSH, it opens a new tab on the local Firefox. Argh!
Here's the solution:
[bungerd@lnxqa20 ~]$ MOZ_NO_REMOTE=1 firefox
[bungerd@lnxqa20 ~]$ firefox -no-remote
Either works, but the second seems more intuitive.
