login form in homepage problem

hi all
i've modified my pagelayout in order to display a simplyfied login form if the user is anonymous, while a "wellcome xxxx" is displayed after the login, togheter with the logout link.
only two questions:
-if the login doesn't succeed i the the original (not modified) login form in the main content area, while i'd like to have a message only in my built-in form. how to avoid the maincontent login form?
-after the logout the maincontent is redirected on the loginform. is there a way to redirect on another page, like the home page?

thanks in advance
