Hi Richard,

The security issue is important because I don't want anyone to be able to 
use the websites database admin scripts without logging into the CMS first. 
Otherwise anyone who happened to type in www.oneofmywebsites.com/cms would 
be able to make unwanted changes to that particular sites database.

In answer to your second question both sites will be on the same box...
