How do you configure Firefox for all users on a machine?
I want to 1. Take my existing set-up of Firefox
a. with all bookmarks
b. with all my chosen options
c. with my default start-up home page
d. bypass all the initial Firefox startup screen and "make this your default screen"
2. Have it be the base set-up for all users that log into a machine on our domain.
Is there a config file? Where do I place this config file so when all open their firefox it takes the above settings. I am creating a base image using VMware and will want this set-up so when a user log in with their logon credentials and open Firefox, it already has the above mentioned settings in place.

You could probably make a copy of the Firefox profile you use in the config you have set up.
Please check out this page on how to backup and restore information in Firefox profiles: http://mzl.la/LHJo6V

You can use a mozilla.cfg file in the Firefox program folder to lock prefs or specify new (default) values.
Place a file local-settings.js in the defaults\pref folder where you also find the file channel-prefs.js to specify using mozilla.cfg.
pref("general.config.filename", "mozilla.cfg");
pref("general.config.obscure_value", 0); // use this to disable the byte-shift
See:
These functions can be used in the mozilla.cfg file:
defaultPref(); // set new default value pref(); // set pref, but allow changes in current session lockPref(); // lock pref, disallow changes
