Good!
I'm running a school server with squid 2.7 and have interest in
showing
always a "Splash Screen" on start a http browser with information
regarding
our school.
I was looking at this item:
http://wiki.squid-cache.org/ConfigExamples/Portal/Splash#Outline, but
i'm
really stuck with the "Squid Helpers" and how to generating the
"session.db"
knowing the server dont use any user authentication program, since
it's free
to use.
session != authentication

The match/no-match ACL result is based on whether a session existed
*prior* to the test. It is simply a test "have I seen you before?
yes/no", the no's get a splash page.
What you are looking for is the passive mode splash screen. Simply
testing the ACL with the helper in passive mode creates or updates a
session.
