That is exactly what we do. All unauthenticated web traffic gets redirected to a machine that just spits them at a page which tells unix users "ssh to 10.0.0.1", gives mac users a one button-capable installer, and gives windows people putty with pages of 8x10 color glossy screenshots with circles and arrows and a paragraph on the back of each one explaining how to install putty and authenticate (and pick up the garbage). -Bob (mother rapers... father stabbers... father rapers! time for an Arlo Guthrie moment...)
