This chapter shows you how to use the CCK tool to implement some of the simplest customizations&#151;that is, those that don't require you to prepare any files beforehand.
</p>
<p class="text">
<a name="14498"> </a>
Other customizations that you can perform with the CCK tool, such as providing your own custom bookmarks or custom animated logo, require that you create customized files before you run the tool. Later chapters describe the preparations required for those customizations.

This chapter describers how to create a CD-based Mozilla installer for use on Windows that includes these customizations:
</p>
<ul>
<li>
Your company name displayed in these locations:
<a name="14299"> </a>
<img src="pixel.gif" align="top" height="22" alt="" />

<li>
Browser window's title bar.
<a name="14301"> </a>
<img src="pixel.gif" align="top" height="22" alt="" />
</li>
<li>
CD autorun screen, which is the screen that users see when they insert the Mozilla CD into a CD-ROM drive.
<a name="14302"> </a>
<img src="pixel.gif" align="top" height="22" alt="" />

<a name="14303"> </a>
<img src="pixel.gif" align="top" height="22" alt="" />
</li> </ul>
<li>
The browser's default home page set to your own home page. The home page is the first page users see when they start Navigator and the page they see when they click the Navigator Home button.
<a name="14306"> </a>
<img src="pixel.gif" align="top" height="22" alt="" />

<li>
Mail and News server settings.

A Mozilla installer that installs only the components you want users to have.

If these are the only customizations you need to make, your installer will be ready for packaging and distribution after you finish this chapter.
</p>
<p class="text">
<a name="14606"> </a>
Even if you plan to make some of the additional customizations that require preparing files, it's still a good idea to follow the steps described in this chapter as a way of familiarizing yourself with the CCK Tool. Once you have prepared the additional files you need, you can run the tool again to add those customizations to the ones you make in this chapter.

This section guides you through the process of running the CCK tool, which is basically the same whether you are performing the simple customizations described here or those requiring some file preparation as described in the chapters that follow.
</p>
<p class="text">
<a name="14618"> </a>
The examples shown in this section are based on the sample configuration provided with the tool for a hypothetical ISP called MyISP. You should, of course, enter the equivalent information for your own company in each screen.
</p>
<p class="text">
<a name="14611"> </a>
The steps that follow describe how to create a customized Mozilla installer that implements the simple customizations described in the previous section.
</p>
<ol type="1">
<li value="1">
Open the Start menu and choose Programs, then Mozilla Client Customization Kit, then N6CCKTool.
<a name="14313"> </a>
<img src="pixel.gif" align="top" height="22" alt="" />
</li><br>
<li value="2">
<b>Welcome to the Mozilla Client Customization Kit!</b> On the first screen you see when you run the CCK Tool, click New Configuration, enter a name for the directory that the CCK tool will use to store your custom configuration information, and click Create New Configuration. Then click Next to continue.<br /><br><img src="gifs/welcome.gif">

<a name="16541"> </a>
<img src="pixel.gif" align="top" height="22" alt="" />
</li><br>
<li value="3">
<b>Specify Platform Information.</b> You can choose to generate a Windows or a Linux installer. It's also possible to create a Macintosh installer by manipulating the installation files produced for a Windows installer.

<img src="pixel.gif" align="top" height="22" alt="" />
</li><br>
<dl>
<dt> <a name="15856"> </a>
For now, leave Windows as the selected platform. <br /><br><img src="gifs/platform.gif">
<br>
<br />&nbsp;</dt> </dl>
<li value="4">
<b>Gathering Information.</b> This screen specifies whether you want a CD-ready installer, the FTP address (if any) you plan to use for a network-ready installer, and the company identifier that will appear as part of the user agent string.<br /><br><img src="gifs/info.gif">
<br>
<a name="14750"> </a>
<img src="pixel.gif" align="top" height="22" alt="" />
</li><br>
<ul>
<li>
Confirm that the checkbox labeled "Include CD Autorun Screen" is selected.
<a name="14655"> </a>
<img src="pixel.gif" align="top" height="22" alt="" />
</li>
<li>
Enter your company identifier in the field for that purpose near the bottom of the screen<br />&nbsp;
<a name="14656"> </a>
<img src="pixel.gif" align="top" height="22" alt="" />
</li> </ul>
<dl>
<dt> <a name="14320"> </a>
The company identifier you enter will be included as part of the user agent string, which helps identify the browser type each the browser accesses your web site or any other web site. Your identifier in the user agent string allows your company (or others) to track the number of times Internet web sites are accessed by web browsers that you've customized.
<br />&nbsp;</dt> <dt> <a name="14836"> </a>
The identifier you supply can be up to 10 characters in length. You must supply one.
<br />&nbsp;</dt> <dt> <a name="14322"> </a>
For example, if you enter "MyISP" in the Company Identifier field, the resulting user agent string would look like this:
<br />&nbsp;</dt><dl><dl><p>
<code>
<a name="14324"></a>
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; WinNT4.0; en-US; rv:1.4.1)

</code>
</p></dl></dl> <dt> <a name="14687"> </a>
When you are ready, click Next to register the customizations you've made on this screen and proceed to the next screen.
<br />&nbsp;</dt> </dl>
<li value="5">
<b>Customize the Mozilla Browser - Part One.</b> This screen allows you to customize the animated logo near the upper-right corner of the Navigator window and to add a Help menu item. <br /><br><img src="gifs/custpartone.gif">

For now, you won't be performing these customizations&#151;but you can come back and do them later if you wish. Just click Next to proceed to the next screen.
<br />&nbsp;</dt> </dl>
<li value="6">
<b>Customize the Mozilla Browser - Part Two.</b> This screen specifies the program folder name that appears under Start Menu/Programs, a custom read-me file, and the files to use for a custom animated logo. <br /><br><img src="gifs/custparttwo.gif">

Once you've created a customized Mozilla installer, you should install your customized software in the same way your users will, so you can verify that all your customizations appear exactly as you intended. Follow these steps:
</p>
<ol type="1">
<li value="1">
Go to the directory that contains your customized installer and its associated files:
<a name="14403"> </a>
<img src="pixel.gif" align="top" height="22" alt="" />
</li><br>
<dl><dl><p>
<code>
<a name="15140"></a>
<em>installation_directory</em>\CCKTool\Configs\<em>myconfig</em>\Output
</code>
</p></dl></dl>
<li value="2">
Double-click the file <code>setup.exe</code>. This causes the CD autorun screen to appear&#151;the same screen your users will see when they insert the CD that contains your customized Mozilla installer.
<a name="14407"> </a>
<img src="pixel.gif" align="top" height="22" alt="" />
</li><br>
<li value="3">
Examine the CD autorun screen to verify that it includes your company name in the title bar and in the area below the title bar.
<a name="14409"> </a>
<img src="pixel.gif" align="top" height="22" alt="" />
</li><br>
<li value="4">
Click Install Mozilla 1.4.1 to launch the installer. Choose the Custom installation path so you can verify that the components installed by default are the same ones that you selected using the CCK tool.
<a name="15237"> </a>
<img src="pixel.gif" align="top" height="22" alt="" />
</li><br>
<li value="6">
Choose About Mozilla 1.4.1 from the Help menu and verify your customized user agent string, which should appear near the top of the window. For example:
