Do you know where I can find information which explains how to setup an ISP
on debian?

What I'm looking for is information which explains which software to run to
automate registration of new members and automate installation of approved
scripts to the new user's cgi-bin and other subdirectories.  

I don't really need nor want the information dealing with dial up access,
server/routers, newsfeeds, etc. I found a lot of that info already and it
isn't what I've been looking for.  

What am I looking for? Well, if you've signed up for an ISP online and have
accessed your ftp area or have worked with cgi you know that your ISP
created one or more subdirectories which have several approved scripts in
your cgi-bin, ftp, or other areas of your web space.  Often those scripts
are automatically edit with the new user's path to his ftp and/or new www
area.  

I want to be able to accomplish the same thing. That is, I want to be able
to have a new user sign up online and have linux automatically create their
account on my server, and then have linux automatically install additional
scripts that I have approved. No use in me manually editing the scripts
each time someone signs up because the computer can do it far more
efficiently.

I've done considerable online research to determine how to create an ISP on
Linux and unfortunately am still stumped.  I cannot find the information
which explains which software controls automating an ISP or which software
automates web space setup, including script installation. 

Do you know what software to use and how to accomplish auto installing
scripts for the new user?

Thanks!

Andre
p.s. I've found two software programs which allow creating web space on my
server for others to sign up for.  The programs range from $60 - $150.00.
Neither can install scripts written by other authors :(
