Dialogue Box Upon Connect?
Hello,
Is anyone familiar with a way to have a "MOTD-type" dialogue box appear on client machines upon obtaining a wireless connection -- without any special configuration on the client's behalf?
I.e., when a client laptop with nothing besides the wireless drivers and TCP/IP connects to a wireless access point, is it possible to have a dialogue box appear on it's screen to give some "MOTD-type" text? A forced web browser to direct to a specific local (LAN) URL would even work and may be preferable as such an approach would be OS (Windows, MAC, GNU/Linux, ect) independent. (That is, if the client's default web browser could be forced to initially execute first since most of the time people don't have a web browser running prior to establishing a connection.)
Possible?
Thanks in advance!
