I need help for I want somehow to point my users every time that open navigator to access the internet this is redirected for homepage the my business, no matter what is your homepage.
What navigator are you talking about? And why can't you set the homepage for your website, and disable the option to change it?
I'm referring to the address posted into the browser, whatever the browser. I'm referring to a server, for when the user to connect for access the internet to open the Internet Explorer in your laptop for example independent of the browser's adress you well be redirected to a homepage that i specify in my server.
jcvalim,
RudyGomez is correct in writing that you can create Group Policy Objects to 1) set the home page and 2) prevent browsers other than IE from executing. If you are a Windows shop using Windows 7 and IE, though, why are you asking this question on LinuxQuestions?

I guess you don't undertend what I wanna say, I'm making a proxy/squid server (DEBIAN),
but I need when the users acess my wi-fi network, whatever the adress of browser,
they are be redirect by my company homepage, no computer are part of a dominion, 'cos it's a free wi-fi network.
The situation is this: I'm available the internet,
but my intention is to advertise in the site for where the people will br redirected
jcvalim,
OK, this is the first I've heard of either squid or a wireless access point. Am I correct in assuming that you want to send all GET requests from your LAN clients to a squid? If so, you can publish a wpad.dat or proxy.nac file to the clients. As corp769 said, you will have to prevent users from changing settings.
If you want to regulate wireless users' access to the Internet, maybe you would find useful something like FreeNAC (http://freenac.net/). FreeNAC checks the MAC addresses of connecting clients, and if it's allowed, it gets the wpad.dat and requests go to your squid proxy. If the client is not allowed, it can be prevented from connecting, or it can be allowed to join a guest VLAN with limited connectivity.
Try: dev.wifidog.org
The Wifidog project is an open source captive portal solution.
Unfortunately, these tips didn't help me for the what I need. As I said, only need that when the people's access my wi-fi all be redirected to the homepage of my company.
Example: RudyGomez access the internet for my lan wifi, your homepage which are inserted in, tools / internet options / general is www.google.com, but even with this setting it is redirected to my homepage. This is my need.
Unless using software like wifidog, you can not just remotely set your neighbor's home page to your custom site. Hotspot software is most likely your best bet. Are you saying you want this to happen only once, or all the time?
Edit - And for future reference, please spell your words out.

Can I write in Portuguese?
Per the LQ rules, posts need to be in English. Your written English doesn't seem too bad, so just try your best. corp769 just meant that you should avoid writing things like "Tks.", I guess.
