[squid-users] Proxy authentication - PXY1

All, anyone

Initially let me say that I am new to Linux, squid, web based technology,
the lot.
I have been given the honerous task of setting up a proxy caching server on
a linux box (Suse 8.1).

I have configured squid and pointed at it. I have configured proxy
authentication and my config file relevant acls are below

acl mynet src 192.168.90.105/255.255.255.255

acl password proxy_auth REQUIRED

 
http_access deny !mynet

http_access allow password

# And finally deny all other access to this proxy

http_access allow localhost

http_access deny all

Authentication does occur reasonably successfully, incidentally I am using
pam_auth as my authentication program.

The problem is that what I would like is for users to be initially presented
with a disclaimer form which they must accept before the proxy
authentication is offered. If they don't accept they are not allowed through
the proxy and presented with a decline screen.

Is there an accepted method for achieving this client/server interaction and
still use proxy authentication. I guess the use of Apache to display these
pages is a must (OR can squid be bent to do these tasks).

All responses gratefully received, preferably initially at least in laymen's
terms , i.e. not down in the depths of development speak.

Cheers
