Thanks, that changed my view on things.
/packages works fine.
I now set cake to use admin routing.
/admin/packages works too, but not the scaffold and layout
My PackagesController looks like this
<?php
class PackagesController extends AppController {
var $name = 'Packages';
function admin_index() {
$this->scaffold= true;
$this->layout= 'scaffolding';
$this->checkSession();
$this->set('packages',$this->Package->findAll());
}
function index() {
$this->set('packages',$this->Package->findAll());
}
}
?>
How do I set scaffold and a specific layout for controller actions
individually?

PagesController is used only for static content delivery.
That said, you've just created a controller with models tied to a
view... something that everyone should do all the time.

that already has access to
the Package model.
