Re: [squid-users] SQUID to run a splash page before port 80 network access?

squid wont push pages too them.
adding the ip to the acl is not a problem,
just write it to the file and reload.
Its also possible to change error messages,
see custom errors help.

perhaps one method would be to forcefully
redirect all web traffic to your page by means
of ipnat or iptables etc.
