Sounds way too complex to me.

Why don't you just put up a static html page in front of the rt?

index.html -> your static page contains the info + a meta refresh on 
http://server/rt/

After a time defined in the refresh tag, users get automatically 
redirected to rt and have to type in their login.

Looks more straight to me than modifying the code.
