You could use AppleScript for that:
1) Make a simple script, displaying the information. Place it on the
server. Make an alias and copy the alias over to the Mac. Anyway this might
not work form time to time because of aliases beeing disconnected from
their originals an a afpd-server.
2) Make use of the MoundVolume extension to mount the server volume(s) and
display your message.
