You can use the built-in admin routing to handle this stuff. For any
admin action, just be sure to prepend 'admin_' to your action.

If you check my blog I've done a very basic tutorial on using the Auth
component and factored in that sort of stuff. No session checking,
just using $this->Auth->user('nameOfFieldThatSaysYouAreAnAdmin') as
the method of figuring out who can access admin actions.
Hope that helps.
