[squid-users] How to configure a "proxy home" page ?

Hi,

I have Squid + SquidGuard + SquidAnalyzer running on my LAN server as a
transparent cache + filtering proxy, and it's working real nicely.

When a client in my company wants to connect to the wifi, all he or she
has to do is this:

1. Connect to http://nestor.microlinux.lan

2. Download the nestor.microlinux.lan.der certificate

3. Install the certificate in the web browser (Firefox does it
automatically)

4. Surf the web

Now I wonder if there is a way to configure this page as a "proxy home
page" of some sorts. User who don't have the certificate installed
normally get a big fat HTTPS error as soon as they connect to a secure
site. So what I'd like to do is redirect "new" traffic to
http://nestor.microlinux.lan, which also explains what is happening.

I don't really know how to go about that, or if it is even possible.
Maybe some basic form of authentication ?

Any suggestion ?

Cheers,

Niki
