Hi there people, I need to do a special setup, that I need help on it. What I need to be done is, when the user open's its browser, on the first access, whether it's the homepage, or the user entering an website, I want to show them a webpage with info, and below give them an "continue surfing" link to leave this intro webpage.
Up to this point, the session helper (which is included with Squid 2.6+) fits the bill exactly: http://www.squid-cache.org/mail-archive/squid-users/200808/0272.html.
If the user closes and re-open's the browser, the behavior should be the same.
With this additional requirement...
I saw that this could be done using squid, I just have no clue how to. Can you guys give a hand on this?
You might be able to do it with a short idle_timeout on the session_helper and a session cookie set by the acceptable use policy (AUP) page. If the idle_timeout is reached and the cookie is tendered by the browser, the AUP page just 302's the request to the destination. If the idle_timeout is reached and the cookie is not passed by the browser, the AUP page is displayed, the session cookie is set and a continue link is made available.
Jorge,
Chris
