<li>If you create a <b>/usr/local/freeside/cck.template</b> file on the external machine, the variables defined will be sent to Netscape users with MIME type <i>application/x-netscape-autoconfigure-dialer-v2</i>. This file will be processed with <a href="http://search.cpan.org/doc/MJD/Text-Template-1.23/Template.pm">Text::Template</a> with the following variables available:
<ul>
<li>$ac - area code of selected POP
<li>$email_name - first and last name
</ul>

+ <li>If you create a <b>/usr/local/freeside/signup.html</b> file on the external machine, it will be used as a template for the form HTML. This requires the template to be constructed appropriately; probably best to start with the example file included as <b>fs_signup/FS-SignupClient/cgi/signup.html</b>.
+ <li>If you create a <b>/usr/local/freeside/success.html</b> file on the external machine, it will be used as the success HTML page. Although template substiutions are available, a regular HTML file will work fine here, unlike signup.html. An example file is included as <b>fs_signup/FS-SignupClient/cgi/success.html</b>
<li>If there are any entries in the <i>prepay_credit</i> table, a user can enter a string matching the <b>identifier</i> column to receive the credit specified in the <b>amount</b> column, and/or the time specified in the <b>seconds</b> column (for use with the <a href="session.html">session monitor</a>), after which that <b>identifier</b> is no longer valid. This can be used to implement pre-paid "calling card" type signups. The <i>bin/generate-prepay</i> script can be used to populate the <i>prepay_credit</i> table.
