Thank you Owen that was very helpful indeed. However I do have one last problem....
So I have an admin subsite which works beautifully... if the users_controller in the root is a hobo_user_controller, which I am really trying to avoid as my main site is an XML service and is completely separate from anything hobo. I have been playing with if for about a day now and I can see that the users_controller in the root is used for the authentication system only and then the users_controller in admin is used for rendering the subsite and does so correctly.... Do you know of a way that I could have the authentication system (the root users_controller) to operate and live only from within my subsite?
