The following site shows a (kinda hack-ish) way to protect an admin route with .htaccess: http://snook.ca/archives/servers/password%5Fprotect%5Fadmin/ If I understand it correctly, it only works because CakePHP runs a check for the 'real' file presence before it processes its own URL logic. So, when you request yoursite.com/ad...
