Conceptual and organisation question between Frontend and Backend

[eluser]sikkle[/eluser]
Hi elite,

maybe i'm wrong but i handle this kind of stuff by having two different application

/application/admin
/application/pub

This give me also the opportunity to have difference config file, also different hooks.

Also i usually take this setup to be able to put my admin.php (index.php renamed) with .htacccess accept connexion from known IP for security.

Hope this open your discussion and maybe give you idea.

A bientôt!
